Is a mole a lizard or reptile?
Responses (2)
Moles are small mammals adapted to a subterranean lifestyle. They have cylindrical bodies, velvety fur, very small, inconspicuous ears and eyes, reduced hind limbs and short, powerful forelimbs with large paws adapted for digging.
There is also the Mexican mole lizard (Bipes biporus), commonly known as the five-toed worm lizard which is a reptile, but a completely different animal than the mole (as above).
