Field Notes

Description:

Light pale color of skin and big eyes to see in the dark as a nocturnal creature.

Habitat:

Likes to hide in small places during the day but at night they come out to hunt and find a mate when it's mating season.

Notes:

I love these little guys because they are cute to watch run around in the light of my head lamp.
