Their tails give them a larger surface area, so they can cool off faster.
They have fur on the bottom of their back feet to protect them from the heat of the sand.
The gerbils have a thin layer of fur on their body to protect them from sunburn.
Yes. Gerbils are native to the northern Saharan desert.
Snakes and hawks, as well as cats, eat gerbils.

Roland Rat didn't have a pet gerbil, but one of his friends, Kevin, was a gerbil.
Sub-Saharan African and Eurasia are separated by the massive Saharan Desert which was very difficult and dangerous to pass through in the olden days. The Americas and Eurasia are separated by the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans and until after Columbus decided to sail the Atlantic due west, no one knew of the New World (the Americas)

When you are told you are allowed to get one.
Archaeologists found the cave paintings in the Sahara Desert by exploring and surveying the region extensively. The paintings were often discovered in sheltered rock shelters or caves, which preserved them from the elements. They were uncovered through a combination of fieldwork, satellite imagery, and the guidance of local communities.
Common pet gerbils are the Mongolian gerbil. Since they live in Mongolia, they are semi-desert animals. They don't see pools of water often. I have never seen one swim or drown, but from what I've seen they definitely don't like it but can do their best at swimming. They will try to get out as soon as possible. Do NOT put a gerbil in a pool of water. It would be quite mean.
No. You can have as many as you want.
The female gerbil CAN accept a new female gerbil, but it totally depends on the characteristics of the two gerbils. If one is friendly, and the other is hostile and territorial, they don't go together. You just have to try it out to see what works. some females get along but all of them.
