Northern Grasshopper Mouse
Order- Rodentia
Latin name- Onychomys leucogaster
Facts about this guys:
Gosh!! These guys are insane!
Where do I start? Okay They are a lot like wolves, maybe even more vicious! They walk around as silent as possible and if they find a small or large mammal they attack it with no fear. They bite for the neck which causes sudden death.
Their diet consists of 90% meat. The other 10 percentage being plants and seeds. The meat comes from animals and insects.
They get on their hind legs and howl also like a wolf.
The females mature in about 100 days. Males on the other hand mature in 115 days. Once they are fully matured they have a nest of babies. This consists of 4 pups. They do this 3 times a year. When the pups are born they weigh about 0.003 kg when they are fully grown they weigh 0.o33 kg.
