Verified answer

Etruscan Shrews may be the most ferocious. They have a bite like a cobra and eat twice their own weight in meat every day. Also, They attack an animal over three times it's size.

The bumble bee (Kitti's Hog-nosed) bat is tailless, and the smallest species of bat. It is also one of the world's smallest mammals. It weighs up to 2 g and is 29 - 30 mm long. It competes for the title of world's smallest land mammal.

Its closest competitor for the title is the Etruscan shrew, which is slightly lighter at 1.2 - 2.7 g, but is longer at 36 - 53 mm (not including its tail). So, depending upon what, smallest, means either of these mammals could be it.
