Oh, I couldn' leave it alone, I just sent an answer back. (I know
that some of it is inaccurate, you don't need to comment it for
me...)


====The answer----:

innocent is one thing, wrong and harmfull information given to the
public one other.

>complaint, but I fail to see what harm suggestions like, "Gerbil treats=

>often help a gerbil's diet, but should be given in moderation. Gerbils =
love
>sunflower seeds."  Nor do schools generally have a problem with using

* buy a male gerbil and two females
- ---> will result in bloody fights

* 'pet pal' , then the best idea is to buy two females
* [not] two male gerbils, for when they grow older they often fight
- ---> wrong way around, females are dominant and WILL fight

* but murder is rare among gerbils
- ---> murder is usual when you put together wrong combinations

* albanism is rare in gerbils
- ----> there are no true albinos in gerbils

* cinnamon coloured gerbils
- ---> cinamon is not a gerbil color

* Hold the gerbil by their tail
- ---> ...and you've got the tail in your hand and the gerbil runs away

* you can sex gerbils [...]
- ---> these instruction just won't work, they're wrong

* [diet] to the gerbils in two forms, gerbil pellets, and water.
- ---> pellets are no balanced diet, the gerbils would soon become ill

* Replace the water [...] or when it starts to look a bit dirty
- ---> That's to late. Water must be changed at least every 3 days (and
the bootle must be cleaned!)

* medium sized lettuce leaves
- ---> no kind of lettuce is suitable for gerbils

* During the time the female is pregnant she will require high
amounts of fresh food and gerbil pellets
- ---> no, she will require more protein, (e.g. worms)

* [after 20 days] you can place the male gerbils with their father
- ---> bloody fights...

* YOUNG TO OLD
- ---> This page is just rubbish, it's wrong.

* Gerbils keep progressing in size until the age of eight weeks
- ---> until 12 months would be right, 12 weeks would be somewhat ok
(they're at 80% then)

And I left out all parts, where important informations were missing
(that would be a lot)...

Seems clear to me. Or has Switzerland got other copyright laws than
the rest of the world?
