Naked mole rats () are a unique rodent species originating in Africa and are increasingly being used in research. Their needs and characteristics differ from those of other rodents used in research. Unique housing systems are necessary to address the special macro- and microenvironmental requirements of NMRs. Naked mole rats are one of the 2 known eusocial mammalian species, are extremely long-living, are active burrowers, and are accustomed to a subterranean environment. Unlike typical rats and mice, naked mole rats need specific, unique housing systems that mimic their natural subterranean environment to support health and longevity. Here we provide an overview of naked mole rats and a housing method that can be used in research settings.
裸鼹鼠（）是一种独特的啮齿动物，原产于非洲，越来越多地被用于研究。它们的需求和特点与其他用于研究的啮齿动物不同。需要独特的饲养系统来满足 NMR 的特殊宏观和微观环境要求。裸鼹鼠是已知的 2 种真社会性哺乳动物之一，具有极长的寿命，是活跃的穴居动物，习惯地下环境。与典型的大鼠和小鼠不同，裸鼹鼠需要特定的、独特的饲养系统来模拟它们的自然地下环境，以支持它们的健康和长寿。在这里，我们提供了裸鼹鼠的概述和一种可用于研究环境的饲养方法。
