The star-nosed mole is a wired-looking mammal that lives in underground tunnels. Because it is almost completely blind, it relies on its sensitive star-shaped nose. They survey their environment by touching everything with their star-shaped nose. Researchers found that after touching a small piece of food they took an average of 230 milliseconds to identify it as edible and eat it.
The star-nosed mole may be weird, but it is also amazing and astonishing.
