I checked the settings and Secondary click is enabled. Double-tap to zoom does work fine. MacBook Pro with Touch Bar (13-inch, 2017, Four Thunderbolt 3 Ports) macbook-pro mouse mojave. The last version released was a beta for Mojave, so bear in mind it probably isn’t supported anymore. If you’re okay with that and provided Jitouch 2 works on your Mac, it might be worth a try if you want a free way to customize your Mac's touch controls.

Heteromyidae:Kangaroo Rats & Pocket Mice

The heteromyids are a group of rodents consisting of kangaroo rats and pocket mice. Despite their names, they are neither rats nor mice; and in spite of their mouse-like appearance, they are not closely related to any other species of North American rodent.

Kangaroo rats and pocket mice are all nocturnal, burrowing animals withexternal fur-lined cheek pouches for storing and transporting the seeds that aretheir primary food. They are all well adapted to living in arid environments sincemost of them never need to drink water. They also have efficient kidneys that can conserve precious fluids by concentrating the urine.

Because there are many of these little rodents and they are closely related to each other, each species has evolved with different foraging times and places, which minimizes competition. Bailey’s pocket mouse, for example, climbs up into desert wash vegetation to find seeds and berries still on the plants, while the desert pocket mouse hunts along the ground in washes and open areas for seeds. Merriam’s kangaroo rat, a creature of open, creosote flats, tends to dash from one clump of bushes to the next, overlooking seeds out in the open spaces, leaving those for other mice to find. In this way many species of heteromyid mice and rats can share the same environment.

Distinguishing features

All three of these kangaroo rats have long tails and large hind feet with 4 toes. (Some other species have 5 toes.) They also have large heads with big eyes, small ears and external, fur-lined cheek pouches.

The banner-tailed kangaroo rat is one of the largest kangaroo rats, weighing up to 4H ounces (128 g). It is light brown or buff-colored with a white underside. The tail is black towards the end, but has a white tip.

Merriam’s kangaroo rat is only about half the size of the banner-tailed rat;its tail is dark at the tip.

The desert kangaroo rat is similar tothe banner-tailed in size; it also has a white tip on the tail, but its fur ismore yellowish.

The Arizona pocket mouse is a small mouse with a thinly-furred tail that does not have a brushy tip. This mouse has tan- to orange-colored fur that is softer than that of many of the other species of pocket mice.

The desert pocket mouse has buff to brownish, coarse fur, and a white underside. The tufted tail is long, and has a crest of fur forming a ridge along its length.

Bailey’s pocket mouse is the largest of the pocket mice, weighing up to 1K ounces (39 g). It has a long, tufted tail and coarse, grayish fur, though the color can vary considerably.

The rock pocket mouse is medium-sized (K to L ounce; 11-18 g), with rough brownish-gray fur and spine-like hairs on its rump. The long tail is tufted, with a ridge of fur running along its top.

Habitat

The banner-tailed kangaroo rat lives in open desertscrub, creosote bush flats, open grasslands and sandy places. It favors a sparse covering of grasses, interspersed with a few mesquite trees and cacti.

Merriam’s kangaroo rat is the most common and widespread kangaroo rat in the Sonoran Desert. It inhabitswashes, open grassland, and sandy soils of the desertscrub.

The desert kangaroo rat is found in the driest parts of the Sonoran Desert, among sand dunes and creosote flats.

The Arizona pocket mouse and the desert pocket mouse both inhabit the sandy, open desert with sparse vegetation of grasses, mesquites, creosote bushes, and a few cacti.

Bailey’s pocket mouseis found on rocky slopes and areas with boulders and rocks mixed in among the cacti and shrubs.

The rock pocket mouse also prefers rocky slopes in the desert, lava flows, and gravelly soils. It may use crevices and cracks in rocky ledges as retreats.

Feeding

• Diet: All of these kangaroo rats are primarily seed eaters, feeding especially on mesquite beans and the seeds of native grasses. Merriam’s kangaroorats eat a few more insects and a little green vegetation as well. The pocket mice are also primarily granivorous (seed eating), most often eating mesquite beans and the seeds of grasses, creosote bushes, and weeds. They may also eat some insects and a very little vegetation. Bailey’s pocket mice are adapted to eat jojoba nuts, which are toxic to most other mice.

• Behavior: Kangaroo rats forage around the desert at night, sniffing out buried seeds, collecting as many as they can by stuffing them into their cheek pouches. These rodents forage in fairly large areas, as they hop along with their bipedal gait. Banner-tailed and desert kangaroo rats store piles of seeds in their burrows, where the seeds can absorb up to 30 percent more moisture from the humid air. Merriam’s doesn’t store seeds in burrows, but stores them instead in shallow surface caches scattered around its home range.

The pocket mice also search for seeds, but less widely than do the kangaroo rats. They carry the seeds in their cheek pouches for transport back to the burrow, where they are cached.
