Telford's shrew (Crocidura telfordi) is a species of mammal in the family Soricidae, the shrews, placed in the genus Crocidura. It was described by Rainer Hutterer in 1986. The species is endemic to Tanzania, meaning it occurs nowhere else, and its natural habitat is subtropical or tropical moist montane forest. English Wikipedia, citing the 2016 IUCN Red List assessment by R. Kennerley, records its conservation status as Vulnerable. The source article is a short stub and gives nothing on the animal's size, diet or population, so none is stated here.
