Description
I went back to find out what Fritz was rubbing his neck on, and this dead mole was what I found.
I had never realised till I took this photo how much alike our hands are.
It is very rare to find a dead mole, and even rarer to see a live one!

Awesome Discovery & Capture!I have seen my share of dead moles but never quite this human like!

I thought how spooky! Like you have found a witch's larder of spell ingredients. The nails are very long making it look like long human fingers. That and the fur missing from the backs of the paws, gives a shiver creating image.

Just for a second I thought you had found a body they look so human, I sometimes find them in the field after summer if we get heavy rain and the field floods.

I thought you finally found a BigFoot. LOL.

Hands/fingers similar to those of us homosapiens? I don't know what the big surprise is. We are all related in the animal kingdom. Experiments are perpetually performed on mice, pigs, rats, rabbits, dogs, apes, and monkeys in order to create drugs and such for the treatment of human ailments. In any event, the hands in this awesome image appear to be that of a mummified human.

I thought you had found a prehistoric human. All you usually see of the moles are their hills of earth.
MrsRatbag
Spooky indeed...years ago I had a cat who brought a baby mole into the house to "play" with. That is the only one I have ever seen!
mystmaiden

I don't even know if we even have moles in Chicago! Let alone moles with almost humanoid appendages. I must say that this is a wonderful, deliciously alien photo, in that it probably causes very strong reactions in some. For me, it's quite fascinating, and it made me think of the mummies I've seen over the years. It's always odd at what actually gets preserved when one mummifies...sometimes, there's radical damage, but then two hands and one foot would be so perfectly preserved that they might look as if they've been stitched onto the body. Funny how that works. I thought of that when I saw this image and for just a wee, brief second, I thought this was a mummy of the more human sort...some prehistoric person found in a suddenly dislodged and thawed glacier. Brilliant!
