White-toothed shrews are small, furry animals that love to dig and explore! They have tiny eyes and a long snout, which helps them find food in the ground.
Hábitat: Forests
The White-toothed Shrews has soft, velvety fur, typically grayish-brown on its back and lighter, often whitish, on its belly. Unlike many other shrews, they possess distinct white teeth, a key feature that gives them their name and helps distinguish them from red-toothed shrew species.
