Small Animals

All wild land animals of the smaller variety. According to Genesis 1:24 this is a category in itself. It does somewhat overlap with שֶׁרֶץ, however. Leviticus 11:29 refers to (part of) this subcategory of animals as שֶׁרֶץ הַשֹּׁרֵץ עַל־הָאָרֶץ which refers to all land animals that have short legs (reptiles) or no legs at all (snakes). To use the term reptiles would be incorrect as small mammals, such as the mouse and the weasel, are part of this subcategory as well.
