Meet the gundi (Ctenodactylus gundi)! This wild rodent lives in northern Africa, where it makes its home in rocky outcrops, seeking shelter between crevices or beneath boulders. It has rounded, flat ears that are lined with hair, which helps to protect the inner ear from sand. When frightened by a predator, the gundi will lay on its side, stop breathing, and play dead.
