National Museum of Natural History: American Mammals: Dulzura Kangaroo Rat

Curated by ACT

The Dulzura Kangaroo Rat is an excellent swimmer; its long hind feet are as well adapted for swimming as for hopping. On land, it usually makes short hops on its hind feet, but can hurry along using all four feet. Learn more about the Dipodomys simulans, more commonly known as a Dulzura Kangaroo Rat, in this easy-to-read species overview by the Smithsonian's National Museum of Natural History.
