In the late 1800's, British Migrants brought Rat Terriers with them to America. They were bred mostly for speed. Their speed is used for controlling vermin and hunting squirrels, hare, and other small game.

∙ 10y agoKangaroo rats are native to North America. They are rodents, not marsupials like their Australian namesake. They can be found in the arid and semi-arid areas of North America, specifically, Canada, the United States and Mexico, as long as there is some grass or other vegetation. They dig burrows to shelter themselves from the heat of their environment.
