Insectivora is an order of placental mammals that includes hedgehogs, moles, solenodons, tenrecs, gymnures, and many shrews. Insectivora means "insect eaters."

Members of this order are primitive mammals that have a long, sensitive snout, teeth with sharp, conical cusps, and five clawed toes on each foot. These mammals eat insects.

Hedgehog Hedgehogs are small mammals that can roll into a prickly ball.

Mole Moles are almost-blind, burrowing mammals.

Shrew Shrews are perhaps the tiniest mammals. They are quite ferocious.
