Here’s what happens when you leave jerboas unsupervised. Although probably it happens when they’re supervised, too.
Jerboas are long-legged jumping mice that live in the deserts of Africa and Asia. We have kangaroo rats in our deserts. What is the connection between the desert lifestyle and jumping?
Beats me.
These guys are so cute! They make me think of Wytt 🙂
Maybe being in the desert makes the feet hot and they have to jump? I dunno, I’m just thinking of how hot sand makes me feel. ha
