The Soricada is a work of fiction.
The name is taken from a Sorex hoyi, or The American Pygmy Shrew. It is one of the hungriest animals on Earth, much like the Soricada. Hopefully you can see that Sorex = Soricada.
Bo’s joke (of which he is very proud) is derived from the combination of “Taming” and “Shrew”. Shakespeare would be proud.
Now, aren’t you glad that you took the time to look it up?
