Meriones unguiculatus
Meriones unguiculates is a species that is quite common throughout the world. As opposed to most of these species on these pages, the Mongolian Gerbil is an everyday animal, if you will. This gerbil has commonly been used as a pet and companion, among other uses to humans.
Meriones unguiculates is the scientific name for the Mongolian gerbil. This type of gerbil is part of the Animalia kingdom and has a nervous system. It actually has a CNS (Central Nervous System), just like humans do. This system is composed of a brain that is attached to a spinal chord that runs down the body. This allows for feeling and sensation in parts of the body, such as, hands, feet, torso, legs, arms, etc. Basically the feeling the gerbil feels is similar to humans. They feel pain, comfort, tiredness, etc. This nervous system is quite easy to understand because of its striking similarity to the human nervous system.
