Definition of jird. : any of several North African gerbils constituting a genus (Meriones) of the Cricetidae.
Jirds can go their entire lives without drinking, relying instead on water generated during metabolism. These rodents feed on roots, seeds, fruits, and insects . Members of the genus range from being social to rather solitary. Even in solitary species, home ranges often overlap.
Meriones jirds tend to inhabit arid regions including clay desert, sandy desert, and steppe, but are also in slightly wetter regions, and are an agricultural pest . The genus was named by Illiger in 1811, deriving from the Greek word μηρος (femur).
