Mammals

The least soft-furred mouse, also called the least praomys, is a rodent with the scientific name Praomys minor, in the family Muridae. It is found only in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Its natural habitat is subtropical or tropical moist lowland forest, which places it among the forest dwelling soft-furred mice of Central Africa. The species was described by Hatt in 1934 and sits in the genus Praomys. The IUCN lists it as Least Concern. The source article is a brief stub that does not give its body size, diet, breeding or behaviour, so this entry records only identity, classification, range and habitat as the article states them.
