Kemp's thicket rat is a rodent of the family Muridae with the scientific name Thamnomys kempi. It is found in Burundi, the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Rwanda, a range in the highlands of central Africa. Its natural habitat is subtropical or tropical moist montane forest, meaning the cool, wet forests on mountain slopes. The article states that the species is threatened by habitat loss, so its forest home is shrinking. The source is a short encyclopedia article that rests on the Mammal Species of the World entry for Muroidea, so details of its body size, diet and population are not given in the pages read for this entry.
