The native mouse of the Peruvian coastal desert, near latitude 6 degrees S, can survive on dry seed without drinking water, it bears young in winter, and it burrows in sand. House mice (which abound in other adjoining deserts) also tolerate dehydration, and in some areas may displace the native mice.
秘鲁沿海沙漠靠近南纬6度处的本地小鼠，能以干燥的种子为食而不饮水，在冬季繁殖，且在沙地中打洞。家鼠（在其他毗邻沙漠中大量存在）也能耐受脱水，在某些地区可能会取代本地小鼠。
