Because it is an omnivore (Eats a little bit of everything) it does have sharp teeth. Since the teeth are small, it makes the point a little sharper also.

Yes

When scared, startled or when you reach for them when cornered.

By grabbing them they will bite and scratch.

Compared to their skull the front teeth are quite long, like a rabbit, and usually stained yellow to brown. The incisors are very sharp!

Both. So when they are flying they can dive and get worms and mice out of the ground with their beaks.
