The large Chinese mole is a mammal that lives underground in the mountainous areas of China. It has powerful front paws with large claws, small eyes and velvety fur that helps it move in tight passages.
The large Chinese mole differs from other species of the genus Euroscaptor by its large body size and tooth structure. It loosens the soil and eats harmful insects, helping forest ecosystems.
