This mole identifies and eats food faster than your eye can follow
The star-nosed mole's nose carries 22 fleshy, finger-like appendages packed with over 25,000 touch sensors called Eimer's organs. Researcher Kenneth Catania found it can identify whether something is edible in as little as 8 milliseconds, making it the fastest-eating mammal known, all while foraging blind through underground tunnels and underwater.
