This is how it could look
Fascinating underground cross-section wimmelbild: detailed cross-section view of earth in winter, showing everything happening underground while snow lies above. Ground cut away to reveal: family of hedgehogs sleeping in cosy burrow lined with leaves; fat badger tucked into long tunnel home; family of field mice in comfortable grass-lined nest; roots of tree reaching down into dark soil; earthworms tunnelling; dormice sleeping in hollowed-out root. Above ground (visible at top strip): frozen, silent white snowfield, bare trees, robin on branch. Contrast: cold empty world above and warm busy world below. Each burrow labelled with animal's name.
