The Smallest Mammal

[AstroNerd23]

The bumblebee bat, weighing less than a penny, is the smallest mammal in the world. Found in Thailand and Myanmar, this tiny creature is smaller than most insects. It’s fascinating how nature can create such a small yet fully functional mammal. Have you ever seen or heard of other unusually tiny animals?

I think the smallest mammal is the Etruscan shrew! Though, its tiny size makes it fascinating and a bit hard to spot in the wild.

Some articles say the bumblebee bat is the smallest mammal in the world, while others say it is the Etruscan shrew. Whichever of the two, they are both the smallest mammals worldwide. It would be fascinating if I came across them.
