| Some commentators on the Old Testament translate the word Akbar as jerboa. |
| In early 1940 the division took as its emblem the jerboa or desert rat. |
| A double parallel to this modification is seen in the jerboa among the ungulates, and in the kangaroo among the marsupials. |
| As the new-comer got on his feet again my hope gained new life, and now our jerboa is my delight. |
| A most unusual family of skilled house-builders are the brush-tailed rat-kangaroos, or jerboa kangaroos of Australia and Tasmania. |
| The jerboa has very long hind legs, and a habit of jumping, so that it resembles superficially a small kangaroo. |
