The Siberian shrew is a shrew studied in southern Siberia. Its coat changes with age, and it is mainly active at night, feeding on invertebrates.
The account describes the back as brownish gray in young animals and brown in adults, gradually becoming pale gray on the belly.
A study in southwestern Siberia found it to be mainly nocturnal and to eat insects, spiders, and other invertebrates. It also occurred in human-altered sites such as logging areas and hay meadows, while avoiding urban and completely degraded habitats.
An extinction-risk assessment has not been added yet.
