What the sources say about this taxon, as written.

biology_ecology · Plazi

Movements, Home range and Social organization. Star-nosed Moles can move more than 800 m from water in dry habitats. Home ranges are usually less than 4000 m2. Densities are normally up to 25 ind/ha, exceptionally 75 ind/ha. Star-nosed Moles might be more social than most other species of moles and presumably form small, loosely connected colonies of related individuals. They communicate by scent and vocalization. Young moles emit high-pitched squeals, and adults produce wheezing sounds.
