Star-Nosed Mole: Sensory Superpower

Equipped with a unique star-shaped nose adorned with 22 fleshy appendages, the Star-Nosed Mole expertly detects and devours its prey. Thriving in wetlands across North America, this mole exhibits exceptional aquatic prowess. It employs an ingenious method of sniffing underwater by exhaling and then inhaling air bubbles, determining prey edibility within a mere 8 milliseconds-a pace that surpasses human visual tracking.
