Long-Eared Jerboa
The long eared jerboa is a nocturnal mouse-like rodent that has a long tail, long legs and extremely large ears. Their fur is light reddish/brown with a white underside. Their tails are covered in fine hairs the same color as their body and have a black and white tuft on the end.
The long-eared jerboa are found in the Qing-Zang Plateau regions of north western China and southernmost Mongolia to the Takla-Makan Desert, Mengxin, Aerijin Mountain. Being such a rare creature, it is in danger of extinction. In 2007, they are identified as one of the top 10 "focal species" by the Evolutionary Distinct and Globally Endangered (EDGE) project.
