Wow, I thought jerboas were a strictly wild animal. I've never heard of
any being kept in captivity (not that I'm an expert or anything). I've
seen pictures of them, they look kind of like gerbils but with longer
hind legs and bigger back feet. IMHO they look kind of strange, I can't
imagine anyone actually owning one much less breeding them in a tank. I
can only picture desert for those critters, but what do I know? Maybe
people do keep them and breed them.
