I saw this animal many times in Konya, Türkiye (Turkey) It's so funny that I couldnt help myself laughing at this mouse-like animal. If you see it running (or hopping) you will understand what I say.
after a bit of research, they don't make bad pets! they live about 5 years and need a pretty large cage/terrarium, but are reasonably cheap, friendly and active. They're somewhat nocturnal, so you'll have to entertain/endure them in the evening. you also need to limit their water supply.
Why is it that whenever people see a new animal or creature 1. They want to kill it and 2 they want to put it in a freakin cage to watch it die. Watch it on video and enjoy it. Leave it alone in its environment.

That's my cute little cousin - an angel with wings!

Wrong:
1. They want to kill it "with fire".
2. They want to call it a pokemon.
3. They want to keep it.

I think its tail is strange. It looks like it's annoyed by it. The long tail not very practical... ( I think....)
