Small rodents can easily be mistaken for one another – it’s so easily done. Shrews and voles are two small mouse like animals that have a lot of similarities with mice, but what are the differences between mice, voles and shrews? Mice Kavoi BM, Jameela H.

A field mouse tends to store ample food because of their mostly outdoor lifestyle and therefore will hide seeds and other foods in and around their nests. House mice tend to eat as soon as they have found the food because, generally, they nest in areas where food is abundant. Papaleo F, Lipska BK, Weinberger DR.

These small eyed and eared, short tailed and pointy snouted creatures can be found on mainland Britain. They may be mistaken for a mouse with a long nose. There are four types that can be found out on a walk in grassy areas or in your garden, with the rarest found in Jersey, Sark and on the Isles of Scilly. Shrews have a lifespan of up to 1 year and they are in fact, not rodents. Shrews are grouped into a classification called Eulipotyphla – aka, insectivores. Although shrews typically look more like mice and voles, shrews are placed into the same group as hedgehogs and moles.

House mice do not hibernate; they simply nest in our settlements where there’s warm shelter and plentiful food. Imamura F, Hasegawa-Ishii S.

In the exogenous task, mice administered MPH appeared to be more alert, as indicated by faster responses and reduced odds of making omission errors, and more impulsive, as indicated by increased odds of making commission and anticipation errors. In contrast, mice on ATX tended to be more cautious, as indicated by slower responses and lower odds of anticipation errors. Similarly, previous studies have suggested that ATX reduces impulsive actions in rodents [ 51, 60, 61] and humans [ 32, 62], in contrast to MPH [ 35, 63, 64]. While both MPH and ATX have been shown to enhance NA and DA in the prefrontal cortex, only MPH appears to directly increase DA in the basal ganglia [ 65, 66, 67]. It is likely that the differential effects of MPH and ATX on alertness and impulsive behaviours reflect their differential roles on subcortical DA neurotransmission.
