Moles live in a variety of habitats, including fields, woodlands, swampy land, riverbanks, and deserts. Moles have a life span of about 3 years in the wild. Some moles are very good swimmers. Moles have tiny eyes and are virtually blind. They have an acute sense of touch which is aided by sensory bumps on the snout, sensory whiskers on the face, and sensory hairs on the feet and tail.
Many moles have a long, powerful tail.
Moles eat insects , earthworms , mice , fish , frogs , small crustaceans, and other small animals. Moles find prey mainly by using their sense of touch. Without our visitors' support, Enchanted Learning would soon be off-line.
