New biggest Shrew!

One of the notes for the swap was that it retain tool use; what's it using that big stick for?

My plan is that it uses it to skewer prey, as well as to use it as a sort of drying rack, keeping either parts or entire corpses on it to dry out in the sun. Also, I plan to write about their use in self-defense, for when some potential predators aren't scared off by intimidation displays.

Is its left hind foot really that far apart from its right hind foot, or is it lifting it up?
It's interesting to see the distinct, grotesque Nergali style applied to a marsupial-esque Shrew.

The left foot is meant to be moving forward, which is why it's further ahead of the right one and the toes are raised slightly upwards. I did this to better how off how the inward toe looked like, since it couldn't get a good angle on it with the right food.
