Moles, voles and shrew behavior
Aside the various physical characteristics, voles, moles, and shrews each live in different habitats and have unique food preferences. These basic characteristics can help you determine voles vs moles and voles and moles vs shrews. Voles prefer to live in creeping vegetation or in low-lying, and make trails through the snow or grass. Unlike the predacious moles, voles are primarily herbivores and will feed on the bark, roots, bulbs, and seeds of many ornamental plants and grasses. Moles live underground in tunnels, and are predatory in nature. Moles primarily feed on grubs, earthworms, beetles and other animals or arthropods found in the soil. Shrews have many habitats, depending on the species. Typically, near a structure, shrews will reuse the tunnels made by voles and moles, and will also occasionally invade buildings. Shrews feed on slugs, insects, earthworms, seeds, small animals and roots.
