Moles often leave their tailtell sign of their feeding, i.e. mounds and burrows, rather than tracks. Rarely one encounters a mole on the surface. Here I show photos of the shrew mole and coast mole.
I rescued this little fellow from the neighbor's cat near my home in the Portland area. At first glance from a distance it looks like a shrew but closer examination reveals claws for digging and a bare nose.
