snail

Chameleon
2.
chapharperah
. This is by most identified with the mole-rat, the
spalax typhlus
. It is very like a mole: it burrows under the
earth
and turns up mounds, but it is of a different order from the true mole. These mole-rats have been found in
Palestine
; they inhabit ruins and stone-heaps, and come out in the
night
. They may be well classed with the bats to which the idols will be cast in a future
day
(
Isa. 2:20
20
In that day a man shall cast his idols of silver, and his idols of gold, which they made each one for himself to worship, to the moles and to the bats; (Isaiah 2:20)
