Mice & Other Rodents

Live-action footage introduces characteristics of Rodents such as mice, voles, muskrats, and gerbils, highlighting the upper and lower incisors, which distinguish rodents from non-rodents such as hedgehogs, rabbits, and bats. Close-up photography of the chisel-shaped incisors of Norway rats reveals that all rodents have to gnaw constantly to keep their teeth from growing too large. Rodents are prolific and widespread.
