Olivia Munson, USA TODAY, 28 June 2022 The image of what a Mesozoic mammal is—that is, mammals that lived during the Triassic, Jurassic and Cretaceous Periods—has often been stereotyped as a small, snuffling insectivore that foraged at night. Riley Black, Smithsonian Magazine, 13 July 2021 The animals are fed produce, mice, crickets, mealworms, eggs, and insectivore pellets. Benjamin Vanhoose, PEOPLE.com, 30 June 2020 And even when mammals are included in studies of the Mesozoic, they are often characterized as small, shrew-like insectivores like the 205 million-year-old Morganucodon from Wales and China. Riley Black, Smithsonian, 25 Oct. 2019 And all of these species are insectivores, happy to feed on the creatures that provide them shelter.

Louis Sahagun, SFChronicle.com, 5 July 2019 These animals play an important role in the ecosystem as insectivores, pollinators and seed dispersers, the authors wrote. Kimberly Hickok, Fox News, 27 Aug. 2018 The researchers live-trapped 12 shrews in June 2014, X-raying the tiny insectivores and implanting them with microchips.
