Rare Pictures of a Cute Harvest Mice by Jean-Louis Klein and Marie-Luce Hubert

These pictures give a rare insight into the secret lives of tiny harvest mice. The Harvest Mouse, Micromys minutus, is a small rodent native to Europe and Asia. It is typically found in fields of cereal crops such as wheat and oats, in reed beds and in other tall ground vegetation such as long grass and hedgerows. Photographers Jean-Louis Klein and Marie-Luce Hubert spent one year photographing the adorable little creatures in a project that saw them released from captivity into the wild.
