Little seems to be known of its habits, and it has only once been represented at the London Zoo. It is rather larger than the common House Mouse and mostly brown in colour. At one time a happy family of Fat- Tailed Desert Mice lived in the old Squirrel-house at Regent's Park. Here they bred regularly and freely, but the stock has now quite died out, and the Zoological Society has been without any for five years or more. In size this Mouse is somewhat bigger than a RATS AND MICE 223 large Dormou...se, having most beautiful thick, soft, plushlike fur, and a remarkably fat tail from which it has acquired its name. This, as is well known by animal students, helps the little beast to store up fat in time of need, in the same way as the Camel with its hump, the Fat-Rumped Sheep, Dormouse, Bear and other animals which need not be detailed. SPINY MICE. The Spiny Mice are represented in our illustra- tions by the Cairo Spiny Mouse (Fig. 174). There are two genera; in the first we find the Malabar Spiny Mouse, which is an inhabitant of Southern India, and in the second there are several species characterized by the possession of thick, rigid, grooved spines on the hinder portion of the back in place of hair.
