RE: Shrew -Not suppose to live here


Linda, it may be a vole.  I found something like that dead at our cabin near Prescott.  I think it was a vole.  Shrews aren’t supposed to live in our state, but voles do.  I do believe they are rodents, but much smaller then mice.

I have found several of these.  I understand they eat bugs. They are not a rodent. Does anyone know these?.  I think in the east they are common. 

  • According to our wildlife dept in AZ I don't think they are suppose to live here.  Not sure why. ? But if they are insect eaters, they sound beneficial to my yard.

Anyone familiar or give me more personal insight into this little thing.  It's only about 2-3 inches.

Seems harmless enough to my iris as best I can figure.
