Dear Father Christmas, please bring me bouncy rabbit mice. I have been very good all year. My regards to your wife and elves. Best wishes, Adrian.
Mysterious mammal caught on film (BBC)
I’ve seen *some* sort of jerboa in a zoo, and it seemed such a fantastic idea… mouse with rabbit ears that hops like a kangaroo! I’ve been through the Gobi desert, too, but I’m guessing jerboas aren’t particularly easy to spot from a train window.
I used to draw animals like these in the back of my 3rd year maths book, but they were from my imagination, and not based on anything I’d ever seen. So imagine my amusement when I saw these little fellas, yesterday!
