Full moon's on the way.

Cute isn't it?

It's called the southern grasshopper mouse. It lives in the badlands of south-western U.S. and Mexico.

It's carnivorous, fresh meat on the menu from crickets, rodents, tarantulas to scorpions and other grasshopper mice if food is a bit scarce.

And after a feast there's nothing better than throwing back one's head and howling at the moon.

Standing there like that, with open mouth, I could almost imagine it on X Factor.

I'd watch that especially after it finished with the judges.
