The Baluchistan Pygmy Jerboa
is the smallest and cutest rodent in the world.
​This animal is considered
endemic to Pakistan but there's a good possibility that it is found in Afghanistan ​since these two countries lie next to each other. ​It grows to an average of 1.7 inches for adults in head and body length that looks like a cotton ball, with its long tail averaging 3.1 inches.
It's also named
as dwarf three-toed jerboa and lives in the plains ​and sand dunes in the deserts. It is nocturnal or active during the night and feeds on seeds and leaves of desert-adapted plants. But they are hunted down by sand vipers, monitor lizards and sand cats living ​in the desert.
