Field mice are small rodents that belong to the genus Apodemus. They are typically found in grassy fields, meadows, and woodlands, where they build nests underground or in burrows. Field mice have small, rounded bodies, with fur that is usually brown or gray in color. They have large ears and eyes, and a long, scaly tail. Field mice are omnivorous, feeding on a diet of seeds, insects, and small fruits. They are known for their ability to reproduce quickly, with females giving birth to multiple litters of young each year. Despite their small size, field mice play an important role in their ecosystems as both prey for larger predators and as seed dispersers.
