Gerbils are naturally from the desert, so they do anything else a wild animal should do. They burrow underground to prevent desert heat and predators. They make nests out of most things they could find (dried grass, etc). Gerbils hunt for bugs and eat roots and seed. They are pack animals, so they live in clans. Gerbils are diurnal, which means they sleep on and off between activities.

Gerbils live all over the place! There are actually many different species of gerbils. Domesticated gerbils are Mongolian gerbils, which means they are originally from Mongolia. Gerbils are desert animals, so they live in semiarid and arid places, like the deserts of Mongolia.
Gerbils live under ground. In the desert they only go outside their burrow at certain times of the day. These times are when it is not too hot.
well it depends, wild gerbils usually live in warm, humid, climates such as the desert. but if their not they live in a cage. ;)
