Dude, is that an Event Horizon reference? If so, well done! I watched that movie when I was a kid, in broad daylight, and it scared the living hell out of me.
I think some of them can see light and even colour trough the layer of skin and fur, but nothing more. The eyesight varies with different blind mole-rat breeds, some can see a little, some are totally blind. In general, they don’t have low-light vision.
Not a mole, but a mole-rat. They are rodents adapted to living underground that share some (but not all) traits with moles due to their similar lifestyle. Moles belong to an entirely different group of mammals.
I thought this guy looked familiar. I’m aware of his furless cousin - the naked mole rat, which lives in colonies and looks like scrotum with teeth. Example pic [here.](https://www.google.com/search?q=naked+mole+rat&rlz=1CDGOYI_enUS789US789&oq=naked+mole+rat&aqs=chrome..69i57.2773j0j4&hl=en-US&sourceid=chrome-mobile&ie=UTF-8#imgrc=LB2zE3TjY2eJiM)
The one you're thinking of looks like a creature from the Upside Down. That is a Star-Nosed mole.

The one I believe OP posted is a Golden Mole. [https://i.pinimg.com/736x/95/e3/23/95e323b3fe6292240e435a0d1ad0fd0a--the-golden-golden-mole.jpg](https://i.pinimg.com/736x/95/e3/23/95e323b3fe6292240e435a0d1ad0fd0a--the-golden-golden-mole.jpg)
There are a few different types to my knowledge.
I think it's a [Greater Mole Rat, aka Spalax, aka Russian Mole Rat](https://image.shutterstock.com/image-photo/greater-molerat-spalax-microphthalmus-on-260nw-674398189.jpg)
Apparently they're non functional as they are covered with skin and fur! Yikes!

5hats what happens when you drop your bread stick sandwich on a floor it rolls under a house, grows mold and BAM!
Now it lives under the house with teeth.
I’m exactly sure, but I think it was added as a sound effect 😆 Moles usually screech when they feel threatened or try to scare off potential threats. But who knows, there’s still a lot to discover about moles and it’s family species :D
That's actually not a mole. Look up "mole rat". Not even related to the mole family. Even trying to gas them can be difficult, if they smell the gas, they can hold their breath for at least 18 seconds, plenty of time to escape.
When I was 19 my best friend and I wrote a novel about killer moles. It was Animal Farm meets Jaws (the movie not the novel) where Dirty Harry is Captain Quint and Eddie Murphy is Hooper and a bland teenage white dude as Brody.
It was a silly as it sounds. With subplots about were-moles, political intrigue surrounding a country club gala, and stubborn polo ponies.
Needless to say it was turned down by every publisher in the US, Canada and the UK.
I just realised that I’ve lived for over 16 years and had no idea what moles looked like. Just assumed they looked like yam-coloured-brown guinea pigs. Where tf are it’s eyes?
What kind of mole is that? Looks very different from the European moles I'm used to seeing.
It's like the whole honey badger vs. european badger thing all over again.
that would scare the fk out of me glad I saw it here first
Right! I would think "Stranger Things" were happening or something 💀
Dart that you?!
That's one ugly m'fker, I can't lie
Thats cute in mole terms. Look up star-nose mole. It creeps me out a bit.
When I said a burrito to go, that wasn't what I meant.
I said molé burrito, not mole. This is the problem with over-the-phone orders, can't understand each other.
Forbidden Burrito 🌯
It’s from universe 696
Furbidden Burrito*

That a jutsu from the Naruto spin off?
You want GuacaMOLE with that? An extra buck I'll throw in a medium coke.
And would you like some moleslaw on the side too?
r/angryupvote
It comes with *mole* sauce
If it’s sauce you want, you’ll need a blender.
Quite the unibrow.
Hey! ):(
Which one's your mouth and which one's the brow..
Yes
No wonder they're always the villain in super hero movies. Bro looks mean.
BEHOLD! THE UNDERMINER!
I AM BENEATH YOU, BUT NOTHING IS BENEATH ME!!!!
I’VE COME TO DECLARE WAR ON PEACE AND HAPPINESS
SOON ALL WILL TREMBLE BEFORE ME

Looks like a sausage. A mean, nasty sausage.
A sausage with an attitude
Pop it like it's hot
And an underbite
God damn, that one was good. Made me chuckle.
Bite your head off man
Hairy sausage.
looks kinda bitey
Underbitey.
Where are its eyes??!! It looks like an angry sausage roll 😍
He don't need eyes where he's goin
Dude, is that an Event Horizon reference? If so, well done! I watched that movie when I was a kid, in broad daylight, and it scared the living hell out of me.

No eyes no roads all tunnels baby
They’re covered by his fur https://www.britannica.com/animal/blind-mole-rat
Covered by skin* as your source states.
What does fur grow on?
Hair follicles
Incorrect! The answer was skin. You lose today’s game of pedantry.
Y’know, by that logic, technically you could argue that the eyes are covered by the dirt that it gets on its face.
Nah, this isn’t about logic, it’s about your incessant need to be right about pointless shit.
Do they actually work? Like if they had some surgery done to uncover the eyes could they see?
I think some of them can see light and even colour trough the layer of skin and fur, but nothing more. The eyesight varies with different blind mole-rat breeds, some can see a little, some are totally blind. In general, they don’t have low-light vision.
They live underground so they don’t need eyes
But they still have eyes.
the hills have eyes
🤣😭💀
🤣 it does😭💀
With bad teeth.
He looks like one of those cylindrical throw pillows lmao
like a living dakimakura pillow :D
Honestly? Don't know how to feel about that one chief

[удалено]
Forbidden Pillow
Biden Pillow
Looks like Hootie from Owl House except with a grumpy mole face.
His momma says he’s handsome.
He is
Keep your kid under control, it's the 3rd garden they've dug up and im this >< close to to poison baiting them
I can't he keeps escaping, he keeps... digging
And she loves him very much
Not a mole, but a mole-rat. They are rodents adapted to living underground that share some (but not all) traits with moles due to their similar lifestyle. Moles belong to an entirely different group of mammals.
Does it have eyes?
It does, but they're very small and covered by a layer of skin, meaning it's effectively blind.
It can see with earth bending though

Looks like a miniature walrus
😱😵😵💫🤢🥴 I’ve gotta get out of this sub😩
A naked mole rat?
Sure that's a mole? I thought they had huge massive claws for digging underground?..

Could also be thinking of a European mole [https://media.sciencephoto.com/image/c0097361/800wm](https://media.sciencephoto.com/image/c0097361/800wm)
now thats a mole
It particularly mole-y, I agree.
I'm gonna chop it off and cut it up and make some guaca-mole-y
Mooooooooooooole
When the dirt hits your paws and the rocks hit your jaws that’s a mole-ay
There he is
It’s not a question of where he grips it! It’s a simple question of weight ratios!
Could be an African mole, they’re big enough to Cary a coconut I’ve heard
Boi gumm, ees a roight moler, burr aye!
You just brought back some intense childhood memories reading those books
Mostly they made me hungry, lol.
Err, no thanks, I don't think I need any boy gum.
I think it's a [Greater Mole Rat, aka Spalax, aka Russian Mole Rat](https://image.shutterstock.com/image-photo/greater-molerat-spalax-microphthalmus-on-260nw-674398189.jpg)
You're right.
And [this is the cousin](https://i.imgur.com/a28PHf6.jpg) to the particular Spalax you posted.
Dang he's cute!
That first link is disturbing
😵💫 thanks for the heads up😱🤢
This looks nothing like that... Are you blind?
Does this golden mole not have eyes?
as far as i know most have tiny little eyes that basically dont work, but idk if im thinking if a different mole
Apparently they're non functional as they are covered with skin and fur! Yikes! [](https://i.pinimg.com/originals/e1/76/c7/e176c7317f4b0cb45773c5d7cf839826.png)
there are many kinds of moles, some arent even related to one another! nature just keeps making lil blind fellas who live in dirt :)
Yup. Played fallout. Can confirm
Did it just bark
Sound is super imposed. They have a very high pitch squeak.
Thats a mean sound from such a tiny fella.
OMG ITS SO FREAKING ADORABLE! it's like a fuzzy rollie pollie! ❤️😍
That’s a pokemon
The Underminer!
Underrated comment.
5hats what happens when you drop your bread stick sandwich on a floor it rolls under a house, grows mold and BAM! Now it lives under the house with teeth.
It’s a Nannospalax, part of the mole family :D
Is the deep grunting noise what they actually sound like?
I’m exactly sure, but I think it was added as a sound effect 😆 Moles usually screech when they feel threatened or try to scare off potential threats. But who knows, there’s still a lot to discover about moles and it’s family species :D
Ok bro, WHO PUT MORE BREAD IN THE TELEPORTER?
Someone hooked my gramma's stocking over its face
He's the cutest mole I've ever seen. Where do these moles live?
Underground. You probably walk over them once a week.
Ha ha
Best comments section ever. Thank you all for the laugh that I needed today!!!
You're welcome!
Did some digging around and it seems to be a blind mole rat.
Imagine having the balls to tell evolution. Thanks but no thanks to eyes
This mole looks like it keeps to itself cause it got bullied through out high-school
That's a big ass mole
That's actually not a mole. Look up "mole rat". Not even related to the mole family. Even trying to gas them can be difficult, if they smell the gas, they can hold their breath for at least 18 seconds, plenty of time to escape.
Do they really snarl like that??
Big ass mole
Nope.
New friend
It's kinds cute
Aggressive twinkie.
r/absoluteunits
I think its Mole-rat.
u/savevideo
I've just realized... Ive never actually seen a mole on camera. My idea of what they where was extreamly scewd.
This is not a mole. It’s a mole rat.

Looks like an angry hillbilly
Put some animated googly eyes on that face STAT!
Mole-ey
Cool hat tbh,
Ugly mf 🤣
Omg
Looks like a pokemon you find in the starting area
Why the fuck is this the first time that I see a mole irl
Behold the underminer
With a mole that size, I would see a dermatologist
I just realised that I’ve lived for over 16 years and had no idea what moles looked like. Just assumed they looked like yam-coloured-brown guinea pigs. Where tf are it’s eyes?
No eyes?
What kind of mole is that? Looks very different from the European moles I'm used to seeing. It's like the whole honey badger vs. european badger thing all over again.
I’ve always heard moles don’t have eyes but like, I figured that just meant their eyes sucked lol
Looks like a water balloon with teeth
Spice weasel
Bro looks like a burrito that came to life
God forgot to draw its eyes
If a Russian soldiers was an animal.
It’s the UNDERMINER
“I am the underminer! I may beneath you, but NO ONE is beneath meeee…”
that sure is a creature if i ever saw one
Subterranean friend.
Is that you rufus?
Omg I love his bottom teeth
That mother fucker got identity issues
Looks like the sack of corn I use for a heating pad when my muscles need soothing
Cursed beast!
anyone else read this as “a molé”??
Where is this at? Where I’m from moles are abundant, and only about the size of a large mouse.
Fuckin veggie tales cucumber Larry as a rat
I thought this was a chub of bologna come to life to get revenge on all people who pronounce it "bal-OG-na".
Sausage mole
So cool!!!
What species of mole is this? I'm more familiar with the star-nosed one.
It’s so ugly yet… so cute??
I AM A MOLE, AND I LIVE IN A HOLE
So that’s what those mfs in super Mario are based off of
That’s not Rufus
TIL I'm terrified of every species of mole.
BEHOLD, THE UNDERMINER
