Introduction
Gerbils are a type of rodent that is popular as a pet or research subject. They have various characteristics and behaviors, which can make them unique pets based on your needs and preferences.

Gerbils are small, furry creatures from Africa which resemble mice in shape and size. Gerbils have long tails that may be double-coated or single-coated, depending on the type of gerbil you’re looking at. Some types of gerbils have short ears while others have longer ears that stick up or hang down toward their bodies.*

They are desert animals that are endangered due to human activities; however, they can live up to six years when kept properly.
Great Gerbils live in one desert area of northern China, but they are endangered due to human activities.
Great Gerbils live in one desert area of northern China, but they are endangered due to human activities. They have been bred as pets and research subjects, and their name is derived from the fact that they are the largest type of gerbil.
Fat-tailed gerbils live in small areas in the Middle East, North Africa, and parts of Pakistan and India. They have a tail that is covered in a layer of fat so they can store nutrients when food is scarce.

Mongolian Gerbils were first discovered by scientists as part of a Russian expedition to Mongolia and were then brought back to Russia where they were bred as pets and research subjects.
Mongolian gerbils were first discovered by scientists as part of a Russian expedition to Mongolia and then brought back to Russia where they were bred as pets and research subjects. These little rodents are known for their long lifespan, with some living for up to four years. They get their name from the country in which they originated and have also been called Mongolian jirds, desert jirds and Asiatic desert rats.
The Chinese gerbil was first bred in Japan but has since spread all around the world for breeding as well as for use in research studies about human health issues like stroke .
The Chinese gerbil was first bred in Japan but has since spread all around the world for breeding as well as for use in research studies about human health issues like stroke. These intelligent rodents are very popular in the pet trade and make great pets, but their use as lab animals has caused some controversy among those who think that using animals for research purposes is wrong. They come in a variety of colors and patterns, making them one of the most beautiful types of gerbils. Their long lifespan (10-12 years) also makes them an appealing choice for pet owners who want to enjoy their pet’s company for an extended period of time.
Conclusion
The gerbil is a wonderful pet that can be kept in the home. They are known for being social animals, so they need other gerbils to interact with. They also need human interaction in order to live full lives as well as exercise time outside of their cages so they don’t get bored out of their minds!
