Jerboas are small, hopping desert rodents found in Asia and northern Africa. They are characterized by their long hind legs, which allow them to leap great distances, and their large ears, which help dissipate heat. Jerboas are nocturnal, spending the day in burrows to avoid the heat and emerging at night to forage for seeds and insects.
