Ok, rodents are smart; believe me I know too well. When most people think of rodents, you may think of mice and rats but there are actually 1,500 types of rodents, including voles, moles, groundhogs, porcupines, muskrats and squirrels – just to mention a few. Although they are all naturally wild animals, some have become domesticated and are kept as pets such as rats, mice, hamsters, gerbils, guinea pigs, hedgehogs and chipmunks. Rodents aren’t usually dangerous but they do carry diseases and can make a mess of your house. All rodents have two front teeth that are continually growing and are naturally yellow (not due to lack of brushing). Rodents gnaw on wood, plastic, bark, etc. to keep their teeth short and sharp. Most rodents only eat plants, nuts and seeds while others are meat eaters that enjoy insects, frogs, birds and anything they can get their paws on. Rodent’s life span can vary depending on their environment, from 9 months to 4 years in the wild. In general, rodents produce a lot of offspring because life can be very challenging – predators are everywhere.
