Description
Morphology
The entrance 1.5 metres high and 0.9 wide indicate a well-defined mouth which, nevertheless, the retreat of the cliff has dismantled almost completely, leaving barely two metres of gallery that, becoming impenetrable, stretches a further two metres. On our left the remains of a small orthogonal gallery can still be seen, with the wall covered by stalagmitic flow.

History
Located on 3 April 2005 by members of the SIS del CE Terrassa. The mouth promises more than the interior, which is soon seen. They named it thus in honour of the defunct speleological group TALPS, who named the neighbouring cova del Joan Petit.
Bio
If we go by the numerous gnawed pine cones found inside, it can be assured that the gallery is widely used by squirrels to have their meals, far from competitors.
