Data from: this article about fat-tailed gerbils and pouched gerbils and their battle to determine who is cutest

This dataset includes species occurrence records and an R script used for ecological niche modelling of two gerbil species: Pachyuromys duprasi and Desmodilliscus braueri. The data support analyses of their potential distributions under present, past (mid-Holocene, Last Glacial Maximum), and future climate scenarios. The R script provides a reproducible workflow for data preparation, variable selection, model calibration, and ensemble forecasting.
