House Mouse
The common House Mouse (Mus musculus) is one of the most numerous species of the genus Mus equivalent to the common term mouse. It is a small mammal and a rodent. It is probably the second most populous mammalian species on Earth (after humans). House mice almost always live in close proximity to humans. Laboratory mice belong to strains of house mice and are some of the most important model organisms in biology and medicine; they are by far the most commonly used laboratory mammal.
