The Kangaroo rat (Dipodomys gravipes) has a unique appearance, with its distinctive hind legs significantly longer than its front, giving it a resemblance to a kangaroo. However, its tale of survival is even more remarkable.

Once thought to be extinct for 30 years, this charmingspecies is making a comeback, thanks to the incredible dedication of Terra Peninsular, which is giving them a fighting chance.

In this episode, the Repton School Dubai podcast crew, alongside Chanda Miyanda, vividly narrate this extraordinarystory of survival and revival.
