| Description |
De huisspitsmuis (Crocidura russula) is een insectenetend zoogdier in de familie van spitsmuizen. Verwar ze dus niet met de reguliere muizen. Reguliere muizen zijn knaagdieren en verzot op graanschuren en uw provisiekast. De huisspitsmuis komt geregeld bij menselijke nederzettingen voor, waar ze meehelpen met het bestrijden van ongedierte. Nu de hitte en droogte maar voort blijft duren komen ook deze kleinste zoogdiertjes in de problemen. Watertjes raken opgedroogd, insecten worden schaars of trekken zich terug tot diep in de grond. In de ochtend troffen we deze (overigens beschermde) dreumes aan, totaal in paniek. Ze wegen maar een paar gram en hebben door hun hoge hartslag, hun gewicht in voedsel nodig. Dat was duidelijk niet meer aan het lukken. Uiteraard hebben we hem mee naar de tuin genomen waar genoeg bakjes water staan en de grond nat en vol wormen zit. Insecten rondvliegen en schuilplekken te over. Ze leven maar 2,5 jaar. Dat gun je ze toch op zijn minst. The house shrew (Crocidura russula) is an insectivorous mammal in the shrew family. So don't confuse them with regular mice. Regular mice are rodents and love granaries and your pantry. The house shrew is regularly found in human settlements, where they help fight pests. Now that the heat and drought continue, these smallest mammals are also getting into trouble. Waters dry up, insects become scarce or retreat deep into the ground. In the morning we found this (otherwise protected) toddler, totally panicked. They weigh only a few grams and, due to their high heart rate, need their weight in food. That was clearly no longer working. Of course we took him to the garden where there are enough bowls of water and the ground is wet and full of worms. Insects flying around and hiding places aplenty. They only live 2.5 years. You at least give them that. |
