Dead Moles on Barbed Wire in Peak District National Park, Derbyshire

---

Moles, anthropomorphosised in the children's book 'Wind in The Willows' can cause much destruction in gardens and on farming land. However, these moles strung along a piece of barbed wire fencing in the Peak District of Derbyshire are unlikely to serve as a warning to other moles, since moles are extremely short sighted and rarely venture above ground during daylight hours.
