Even though many species of moles don’t grow more than 10 inches, male moles are often larger than females.The star-nosed mole’s face has 22 tentacle-like projections that are sixfold more receptive to contact than a person’s hand.These moles possess long, grasping digits and extremely keen snouts, which they utilize to dig burrows.Despite having underdeveloped eyes, they have a keen awareness of touch that compensates for their limited vision.
