Tubulidentata is an order of mammals that contains only one family, with one living genus, and a single species, the Aardvark. Aardvarks have narrow heads and long snouts. Their ears are large and hearing acute. The short, stout legs, partially-webbed feet, and long claws are well suited for burrowing large sleeping dens and for tearing apart mounds of the ants and termites on which it feeds with its long sticky tongue.
