Has anyone ever seen a Pygmy Shrew?

dlofnep · 27-07-2009, 22:08

I haven't! I'm pretty sure it's one of this other urban myths that apparently exist in Ireland, like Leprechauns and Leitrim!

Has anyone ever seen one of these little chaps?

*My name is URL* · 27-07-2009, 22:10

Yeah, I'm pretty sure my cat kills them as a hobby

poor little bastards

**Silverfish** · 27-07-2009, 22:10

Yes. They are cute, yet weird.

Like a little tiny mouse with a freaky little nose.

**TheZohan** · 27-07-2009, 22:11

Yes, saw a dead one once, they're tiny.

I saw one in the London Museum of Natural History the other day if that helps

Tomebagel · 27-07-2009, 22:17

dlofnep · 27-07-2009, 22:23

Absolutely not. They are sworn enemies.

Used to be a picture of one by the door in The Sportsman's Inn in Cullahill, closest I've come to seeing one.

one here, weird, like a cross between a mouse and an ant eater

*InkSlinger67* · 27-07-2009, 22:27

Nah, the hippies have licked them all to extinction

I once slept with one , she was tiny but real cute , turned out to be the biggest bitch in her village.

steamjetjoe · 27-07-2009, 22:28

They are cute, yet weird. Like a little tiny mouse with a freaky little nose. __________________ People often ask questions of me which appear to have no definite answer. Most of these are along the lines of "What the hell are you doing in my house?" and "Is that blood?" but occasionally they ask me deep and meaningful questions. I rarely answer them, usually because I'm sprinting away at a very high speed. But I figured I would lay out the facts here for all of you, so then maybe you'll all stop calling me all the damn time and asking me stupid **** like whether or not I'm going to give your poodle back, because, no, I'm not.
