verreaux's mouse
Myomyscus verreauxii
The Verro mouse with white paws is a small rodent from the mouse family that lives only in South Africa. It has brown fur and bright white paws, is active at night, and runs quickly on the ground.
The Verro mouse differs from related species with its bright white paws and special tooth structure. It is important for nature because it disperses plant seeds and serves as food for snakes, owls, and other predators.
