Voles are small rodents belonging to the family Cricetidae, which also includes hamsters and lemmings. They are often mistaken for mice due to their similar size and appearance, but voles typically have shorter tails and stockier bodies. These rodents are found in a variety of habitats, including grasslands, forests, and meadows, and are known for their prolific breeding habits.
