Harrison's gerbil

Mammals

Harrison's gerbil, Gerbillus mesopotamiae, is a gerbil, a small mammal in the rodent order. It is distributed mainly in the Tigris-Euphrates Valley in Iraq and western Iran, the river lowland that gives it its other name, the Mesopotamian gerbil. The Wikipedia article about it is only a few lines long, so no habitat, diet, behaviour, body size or conservation status is stated here: the source does not give them and the description does not guess at them.
