The little mole has recently
been recommended for membership
in the society of big eaters. It is so
very voracious, even in captivity, that
it will some times eat more than its
own weight of earth-worms in twen-
ty-four hours. One little glutton,
weighing four ounces, devoured seven
and one-half pounds of worms in one
month. When the diet changed to
raw beef, mutton, chicken heads and
rabbit liver, its appetite was unchang-
ed. Cheese, when mixed with either
worms or beef, was the most tooth-
some bit of all.
