AI interpretation; anatomy from a dated account.
Overview
Kim describes sandy to grey-brown upperparts, white underparts, large ears and dark eyes, narrow elongated hind feet, and a long tail ending in brushlike hairs. Startled animals bound on their hind feet.
The account links nocturnal dune foraging with daytime shelter in burrows. Vertical shafts connect a deeper tunnel and vegetation-lined nest; squeaking at a sand blockage can bring other occupants to help clear it.
