whatsit wednesday

Is this rodent a rat, shrew, or some crazy Jim Henson creation? It doesn't quite look like any rodent I've ever seen before. Do any of your squeeps know what this squeeture is?

What happened to this poor widdle mouse's nose? Did someone stretch it out? Or maybe it isn't a mouse at all... help squeeps! What is this cute critter?

Squee lovers, today's whatsit is a feathertail glider baby, and it comes to us straight from the Taronga Zoo! Feathertail gliders are the world's smallest gliding animals, and believe it or not, this itty bitty feathertail baby is already too big for its mother's pouch!
