The Haitian solenodon is a small mammal with a long snout and venomous saliva. It lives only on the island of Hispaniola and is one of the rarest and most ancient species of mammals.
The Haitian solenodon differs from other mammals by having venomous saliva and very ancient origins. It is important for nature as an insect hunter that helps maintain balance in the island's forest ecosystems.
