Rodents (Rodentia) – The most special and most successful order of the mammal class (mummalia) with 1,700 types prevalent around the world, with the exception of Antarctica, New Zealand and some Tihiocean Islands. Most species live on the ground, but some have adapted for movement with long jumps, others for life underground, water or trees. Most rodents are social animals living in communities.
