Moles

Today, I will talk about moles.

Basically, moles dig a tunnel in the soil and live in there.

Since there is almost no sunlight in the soil, moles' eyesight have atrophied, and they can see almost nothing.

Instead, since their senses of smell and hearing have evolved, they can figure objects ' shape out by smells and sounds.

Also, since moles are a big eater, they seem to starve to death if they don't eat anything for twelve hours.

By the way, it's said that the moles' digging speed is similar to the speed of snails.

I feel that their lives are tough.

モグラ

今日はモグラについて話します。

モグラは基本的に、土の中にトンネルをほってそこで生活しています。

土中は光が入ってこないため、モグラの視力は退化しており、ほとんど何も見えていません。

その代わり嗅覚と聴覚がとても発達しており、臭いや音で物体を立体的に把握することができます。

また、モグラは大食漢で、胃の中に12時間以上食物が無いと餓死するそうです。

モグラが穴を掘るスピードはカタツムリ程度だそうなので、毎日大変そうです。

  Write it this way.

Sometimes I think animals can't get a sense of whether their lives are 'tough'. They do feel emotions of course, but aside from mating, eating and resting, I doubt that they understand their existence properly.
