Scent gland tumours are by far the most common gerbil tumours, but do not tend to be very common these days. I thin it is because few people use metal based tanks etc. When we did in the 80's we had far more scent gland tumours. -- Julian [EMAIL PROTECTED] National Gerbil Society http://www.gerbils.co.uk/
