Jerboas are highly social animals and require interactions with other jerboas. After nightfall, they congregate in large burrows and demonstrate intense activity. At the entrance of the burrow, each male jerboa leaves droppings to identify they are in the burrow.Kirmiz, John P. Adaptation to Desert Environment; A Study on the Jerboa, Rat and Man.
