Nole:

/nōl/

noun
An alternative scientific grouping of small furry creatures that embody a somewhat inexplicable set of attributes which differentiate them from other mammals. The most defining general characteristics are a small to smallish-medium size, typically monochromatic furry appearance, a curious disposition, and adorability coefficient greater than π (3.14159). Noles occur on every continent except Antarctica. Noles typically live on land, but there are several amphibious examples (river otters), and one marine species (sea otter). They are rarely arboreal; however sugar gliders are noles, and

some squirrels are occasionally noles, depending on their disposition at the time. Species come from several different families and orders, including rodentia (e.g. marmots, kangaroo rat, cavvys), carnivora (e.g. ferrets, otters, mongeese) ochotonidae (pikas), and a few small marsupials (sugar glider, crest-tailed marsupial mouse). There aren't any non-mammalian (avian, reptilian, amphibious, fishy, or any non-chorodate species currently recognized as noles, (while a mongoose is a goose nominally, they are not actually birds as they do not have hollow bones.) Bats, most rats, cats (except meerkats), dogs (except prairie dogs), raccoons, coatis, monotremes, pandas, nutrias, beavers, bears, primates, badgers, rabbits, any hooved animals, wolverines, etc. are not noles.
Nole
1. There are many species of noles living in the mountainous and desert areas of the American West.

2. While fortunately, it is not the case for humans, noles do tend to make up an important component of the food chain in some areas, with some noles even being the prey of other nolean species.

Nolean
1. Although most marsupials are not noles, the animal has very nolean characteristics, and is a great example of a marsupinole.
