Star-Nosed Mole

The star-nosed mole inhabits low and moist areas around North America. It has a weird nose made up of over 25K minute sensory receptors. As implied, the hamster-sized mole uses the sensory receptors called the Eimer’s organs to feel its surroundings because it’s virtually blind. 

The sensory touch receptors also help the mole to pick up on seismic vibrations. It can also use its sensory receptors underwater by blowing out bubbles and sucking them back in to perceive its surroundings. The mole also has a reputation for being a fast eater, and it can hunt and devour a bug in under a second.
