The woodland jumping mouse is a small rodent from North America. It has strong hind legs that allow it to make long jumps up to three meters.
The woodland jumping mouse differs from other mice with its very long tail with a white tip and the ability to jump far. It is important for the forest because it disperses plant seeds and serves as food for many predators.
