Rodents are the most successful mammals on Earth with more species than any other warm-blooded animals. Rodents include mice, rats, voles, gophers, lemmings, prairie dogs, beavers, muskrats, squirrels, chipmunks, porcupines, gerbils, hamsters, guinea pigs and chinchillas. (Shrews, moles, rabbits, hares, badgers, bats, opossums, hedgehogs and skunks, etc., are not rodents.) Many types of rodents are kept as pets and a number were once used as laboratory animals. Despite threats to habitat, these small animals continue to thrive on Earth.
Below you will find examples of Terran rodents and related terminology. Because there are thousands of species, we will only list a large representative selection of Terran rodents and will not list extinct species at this time. Alternative names for some animals are listed, inluding in languages other than FSE.
