I'm doing a research project on the shrew, so anyone who's got any info on them send it to me!!!!

Dear shrewfreaks, This is the best shrev and mammal-site in al its aspects. Congratulations!! Greetings, "Batman" mammalfreak from Limburg-Belgium Rik Brys


On 19.02.00 at 17:00 from Joris Gerritsen (enpar@westbrabant.net / no homepage)

I'd like to ask the audience if there is nice (or not so nice)way of getting rid of shrews. Around my house (and probably also in it) each year around february/march they are the cause of a terrible smell. It was said that this is caused by the males trying to attrackt femails for their breeding. This auwsome stink is very noticable but we never see a trace of the animals themselves. How can we destroy these little bastards?

We caught 1, the cat got 1, so how many do you think are still living in my house? How can I get rid of them or do they actually hurt anything being there?

I was shoveling snow during the day when I notices a small rodent tunneling through the snow. It was a shrew and it was white! It looked like a tiny polar bear.


On 17.01.00 at 13:16 from Mary Vriens (zwartepoortensv00s@compuserve.com / no homepage)

Proffessionally I work with small mammals and nocturnal animals at Rotterdam Zoo. In my private collection I keep M. proboscideus. So far I bred 6 babies, but all died at the age of 21 to 24 days. A lot of theories for the deaths,no solutions.Ideas?


On 11.01.00 at 21:58 from Margaret (mu74@hotmail.com / no homepage)

Great page, I'm doing some research work on tree shrew mDNA myself as a graduate student, so a little background information was useful.

I'm a biology undergraduate doing an Hons. project on small mammal populatons ( mostly Bank Voles and Wood Mice ) - but I've trapped a few shrews, so I thought I'd see what other people thought about them! You're all clearly mad on shrews!! Great site though - keep up the good work. PS (If anyone has any info on small mammals they'd like to send me, I'd really appreciate it!!)

On 26.10.99 at 12:40 from Mike and Judy (mikeandjudy@tesco.net / no homepage)

Dear Shrewists, Glad to know that some people are as mad about shrews as we are. However, we are still desperately searching to find one in the wild. Any tips would be gratefully received. We presently live near the River Crane in West London, a possible prime site. Keep up the good work. Would definitely be interested in shrew memoribilia.

On 22.09.99 at 07:49 from Melissa R. Hempe (hempem@msn.com / http://www.geocities.com/Petsburgh/3608)

I am trying to discover the name of the small animal I saw over a year ago. It was black, had small paws for digging, but most uniquely a trumpet shaped snout with a cheerio like opening at the end. Very tiny and cute. Neurotrichus gibbsii - Shrew-mole - NW North America perhaps?


On 14.09.99 at 06:27 from K Sivakumar (rksivakumar@yahoo.com / no homepage)

I am studying the wildlife of Andman and Nicobar Islands especially fauna. Since 1995, I have been studying the ecology of the endemic avifauna of these islands. Along with this study, I collected some information regarding the distribution, density, ecology and breeding biology of the Nicobar Tree Shrew. After entering this great website, I would like to discuss with the tree shrew specialist about the Nicobar tree shrew (this species ever studied before) especially its conservation. Intrested people kindly contact me because I look forward to learing lots about tree shrews.


On 13.09.99 at 18:47 from Jane Ann Junge (janej@idir.net / no homepage)

What a useful site. Shrew(ists) have been scattered all over the world. This permits comminication ! Loved the artwork


On 16.08.99 at 02:42 from Roger Neumann (neumann@kmoraine.com / no homepage)

I am researching a small mammal reportedly chewing off the insulation on ignition wires on cars in Germany. An exchange student told us they cannot leave a car parked outside in some areas for fear the animal will do damage to the wires. Any info on this is appreciated.


On 06.08.99 at 19:13 from John R. Bryce (jbryce@bangate.fda.gov / no homepage)

Great site. My work includes identifying contaminant hairs in foods. Having published a paper on the characteristics of the hairs of Suncus murinus, it is interesting to note that food imported from Asia has been found to be contaminated by the hairs of this little commensal mammal.


On 06.08.99 at 08:21 from Althea Roderick (aroderick@jps.net / no homepage)

What a great find! Never imagined there was a website for the shrew. I have a great story from my childhood in Minnesota about two pet mice and a shrew that I tell to kids. Wanted to know more about this mammal we mistook for a mouse. Things are not always what they look to be!


On 28.07.99 at 16:44 from T. C. Flanigan (natexpo@nb.net / no homepage)

Hi, Great Web Site. I am seaching for information about the Star-nosed Mole, (Concylure cristata). Can you assist me inlocating some? Thank you!

On 06.07.99 at 07:14 from Jase Flanagan (jase_flanagan@hotmail.com / no homepage)

I live in Guam, and we have a terrible time with all of the shrews here. They get into everything and leave feces everywhere! I have discovered that the most effective way of catching them in a trap is to use another dead shrew. Why is that? When I kill one in the shed, by the time I get back from the house with a baggie to pick it up, it has been moved across the shed (about 5 feet). They seem to like to recover their dead--is this a common trait in shrews? Please email me if you know anything about this--Oh, and if you also might know what type of shrew this is here in Guam, there are no pictures resembling ours on the shrew site--Jase.

I need a bit of expert help. I put a question in our company newsletter, asking "What is the only poisonous mammal?" with the expected answer of the platypus. An employee has answered "shrew" instead. Is this a possible correct answer?


On 11.06.99 at 22:38 from John P. Levell (zoobooks@means.net / http://www.zoobooksales.com)

Dera Dr. Haberl, Just wanted to let you know how much I enjoy both the e-mail newsletter (Shrew Talk) and the on-line Shrew (ist's) Site. Although my primary interests are in the field of herpetology, I must admit learning much about shrews and being most impressed by your webpages. So impressed in fact, I've added a link to your site on our on-line Zoo Book Sales natural history book catalog. Once again, great job on the Shrew (ist's) Site.

On 17.04.99 at 12:48 from Gord (grod@reach.net / no homepage)

I have a shrew in my basement. It seems to stay for a week or so, then dissappears for a time. It seems to have preferred defecation sites. The first time it came, it was bold, coming out in the open, but it seemed to learn I keep a cat and now it is much more cautious.

On 01.04.99 at 08:58 from Sally Walker (zooreach@vsnl.com / http://members.xoom.com/ZOOIndia/)

I run an NGO in India which runs CBSG, India and several taxon networks with the ultimate objective of conducting CAMP Workshops for biodiversity assessments. Last year we conducted a CAMP (Conservation Assessment and management Plan ) workshop which utilises the IUCN Red List Criteria, 1994 as an assessment tool, and assessed 400 species of Indian mammals of which about 100 were rodents and insectivores. To view the summary of this workshop see website below. We are starting a Network for South Asian field biologists and scientists who specialise in Rodents and insectivores. This shrew site is providing a lot of goodinformation. If anyone has information on shrew or rodent specialists in India or on the animals themselves, I would be happy to have it.

We are also looking for a sponsor for the network. It will cost a couple of thousand dollars to run. Out aim is conduct a C.A.M.P. workshop for only Indian (and possibly South Asian) Rodents and Shrews in the year 2000 or 2001.


On 23.03.99 at 19:41 from T. McIntyre (rancher_three@hotmail.com / no homepage)

I am a college student doing a research paper on small mammal habitat preference. If anyone could give me any information on shrew habitat preference of the Blarina brevicauda and the Sorex cinereus or where I may find such information it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

I have accidentally killed my second common shrew in my garage mousetrap which is always baited with sunflower seeds. Have the shrews been periodically disemboweling my dead mice? Do shrews attack moles? If so, ship me several dozen! Great website--Vielen Dank, Carl Raichle, Glen Gardner, NJ, USA

Dear Shrew-ists

Thank-you for the opportunity to visit your truly unique site. I am a storyteller about to tell a story which features a giant shrew (bigger than a polar bear) and so wanted to imagine accurately what that would look like. The site helped a lot. If you want to add the story to your bibliography, it is called "The Battle Song of the Giants"--an Inuit myth--and is in a collection called Tales of Ticasuk, by Emily Ivanoff Brown. Fairbanks: University of Alaska Press, 1987... Are there shrews in the Artic or northern Alask? I would appreciate any data as far as northern geography you could give me, and soon. : ) Thanks again.

Wow, I thought all you people were a little off your rocker and hey you all may very well be, but I really enjoyed the photo gallery. They are such itty bitty things! Well I am doing an undergrad project on them and I like them so far, but I think shrewist is a bit strong for me yet? What's the total fascination? Just wondering.

It was my very first day in the internet and I found all the amazing pictures and stories about shrews. And it so happened that on this very day my youngest son needed material for school about "Spitzmäuse". So I was very lucky that you could help him, because you collected all this competent and widespread informations about shrews. Your work is absolutely great. My son's teacher kept all the "prints". Thanks and greetings from Berlin!

Don't know what to say. They all said it before me. I can only describe this place like a piece of art, a master piece etc, etc. I found it while I was searching for people who are also interested in Crocidura. Well, I know very small part of such big field, but I must do my after diploma work on the skull of Crocidura suaveolens. And this site is for now the biggest help I can get. Except people I'm working with. Thank You again very much. And I hope you won't become a shrew in the future (or You will?!). You never know.

On 14.10.98 at 03:46 from Jessie (jessiemo@hotmail.com / no homepage)

Early this last summer I was riding my mountain bike and saw a small rodent looking this run across my path. So I jumped of and caught it. It looked like a hamster. I love small rodents and wanted to find out what I had found. After putting it back in the brush away from the trail. I went to my friend's not really thinking of the animal but I did take his room mates Missouri Consevationist were I was lucky to find the story about shrews. Now I'm looking for information in the desert shrew for a zoo. mid-term. If anyone has more info please sent it to me. I really liked the page.

Werner, thanks for your timely response to my shrew query, it helped greatly. I remember as a young girl learning about and being interested in shrews, my recent shrew visitor has rekindled my curiosity

I found a short tailed shrew that kept walking in circles, sometimes even falling on its side. He seemed to have problems with his hind-quarters. I found your site while searching for information on shrews. You have some very interesting information here. I would be interested in anyones opinions regarding the above incident.

The two cat youngsters (about 9 months old) have been bringing in things from outside to play with. I went wandering around doing research on Internet to find out actually what was the species that frequently showed in the house - sometimes not damaged hardly at all (yet). Your homepage with all the info (and photos !!) about shrews. Ah yes ... life is weird. Thanks ...

Hi Werner,
Discover magazine does a monthly survey of interesting web pages. I e-mailed them about the shrew(ist's) site. Perhaps they are going to mention the page in one of their future issues.
"Your" page is simply FAB!

I was writing my weekly commentary for Public Radio and quoted a children's story in which Jimmy Skunk says, "If [the shrew] tastes as bad as he smells, I for one don't want to try him." To verify the scientific accuracy (!) of Jimmy's remark, I checked my Petersons Field Guide to Mammals--but no info. So I turned to the Internet...and found this wonderful Shrew Site! AND got an answer to my question from Werner within a couple of hours. Do people stay up all night in Vienna?

Thank you for the large amount of effort, time, and expertise that obviously went into creating the "shrew shrine"!

"Believe It or Not!" Robert Ripley sent us here! I work with remedial reading students in Centralia, Washington USA. A student chose to research the Elephant Shrew and that led us to your site. What a great source of information. Even though he did not find his answer here the prompt response from Werner has led him to proof that Ripley was mistaken! That doesn't happen often! Nice to find such an informative site operated by such a helpful gentleman! Thanks!!

Hello. I am an avid shrewist on the internet, my area of expertise in that of the Guosim shrews of Mossflower woods. I know you have mentioned it on your site, and I was wondering if you could somehow connect my site with yours. In any way, whatever you think is appropriate, but it is my homage to the shrews of the world. I would be a very happy shrewist if you could. Thanks.

I am taking a course about mammals in winter at The Morton Arboretum in Chicago. My special interest was B. brevicauda. I thought I might find a few items through Alta-Vista. When I came upon your site, I was astonished at the huge amount of esoterica on the shrews. This is great, interesting and useful "stuff"! . I can't wait to share this with my fellows. Thanks for the excellent work.

Came across your website and wondering if you had some answers. I live south of Helena Mt. USA, at 5800 ft. in the Helena National Forest. We have had a deer mice problem in our house which we have been fighting,(and losing I might add), until recently when my traps have not produced any mice. What they have caught are shrews! Not on a steady basis, but 3 over a period of about 9 weeks. I know virtually nothing about them. Do they eat mice? Do they infest houses similiar to mice? We are presently still finding ways to combat the mice because of haunta Virus (not sure of spelling). Do shrews also carry the virus? Any information would be greatly appreciated.
