Long tailed weasel lugging a kill twice its size
These tiny restless killing machines are always looking for their next meal, and that's because they have to.

The body's resting metabolic rate (RMR) is the baseline energy expenditure required for fundamental survival functions while awake and at rest. This caloric burn covers essential processes like breathing, blood circulation, maintaining body temperature, and basic brain and organ function.

This is different for all bodies, but for the long tailed weasel, this burn is considerably higher than other animals of similar size.

This means that it needs to eat more, which means it needs to kill more things to eat, which means these high energy solitary carnivores are going to check every hole, log, and burrow for something to fill the insatiable void in their little belly.
