What is some information about kangaroo rats?
Kangaroo rats are rodents. They are rat-like mammals with long tails and large feet like a miniature kangaroo. However, they are very much smaller than kangaroos, with Giant kangaroo rats having a body length of only 15cm (6 inches). Kangaroo rats are not even remotely related to kangaroos, or rat-kangaroos of Australia. Kangaroo rats are members of the rodent family, not marsupials like kangaroos. They do not have pouches, and they do not live in Australia. Kangaroo rats are found in North America, and inhabit deserts and semi-arid grasslands. They do not need to drink water, obtaining most of their moisture needs from the seeds they eat. The Australian equivalent of kangaroo rats are known as native hopping mice, but they are not at all related either.
