Cool! But pictures! We need pictures! And doesn't this one drip venom from its tiny teeth? (In the US we hear that everything in Australia is deadly. :-) ) Stan 17:49 May 7, 2003 (UTC)

Pictures would be great. I could do a gross copyright violation in about 30 seconds flat, but won't of course. These little fellows live about as far from me as Boston is from LA, so I've never seen one, let alone managed a photograph. But I can draw you a mental picture that should be close enough:

Take a ordinary mouse. Shrink it to half size or less, allowing the back legs and the ears to stay a little bigger than the rest of it. Round the ears more, point them forward. Stretch the tail out extra long.

Now take a very small vice and squash the little fellow's head, so that his eyes sit almost on top and it's only 5mm thick, but 20mm wode at the ears. Make ure his nose is nice and pointy. There you have it: a Long-tailed Planigale. Tannin

Sounds like it fills the niche of shrews elsewhere. I wonder if there's a planigalist who would love a chance at immortality by having one of his pictures grace the encyclopedia (just say it's for Britannica Online :-) ). Stan 18:47 May 7, 2003 (UTC)
