Burrowing animals are animals that dig and live in underground tunnels or dens. Two examples of burrowing animals are SHREWS and moles. SHREWS are small mammals with long snouts and short tails, while moles are small mammals with cylindrical bodies and velvety fur. Another burrowing animal is the aardvark, which is a large mammal with a long snout and powerful claws. AARDVARKS are native to Africa and feed on ants and termites.
