Black and rufous giant elephant shrews, also known as sengis, are more closely related to elephants than they are to shrews. They belong to the superorder Afrotheria, which includes elephants, hyrax, aardvarks, and manatees! They do a lot of scratching with their back feet, but it's not because they're itchy. They have scent glands in their feet that they use to mark their territory, and even their mate! | Brookfield Zoo Chicago

The short-eared elephant shrew, or sengi, is a small, insect-eating mammal with a long, flexible snout perfect for sniffing out prey. Despite the name, it’s not actually a shrew—in fact, it’s more closely related to elephants, aardvarks, and manatees!
