      Scenes like these are obviously staged, and they're quite open about it too - there are videos out there showing the stage setups. That doesn't necessary make these footages fake - they're wild animals after all, throw them in a familiar environment and they will act naturally.

      Maybe there can be a compromise? The Jerboa could offer an arm or a leg to the Fox. The former gets to live, and the latter doesn't have to go hungry.

      or they could just be the pacific jumping mice or kangaroo rats, which are native in oregon where coraline was confirmed to take place at. and they do kind of resemble them.

      I'd be willing to bet it's rotorscoping. Captive animals in some sort of sand pen filmed at different times and overlaying the images. All the rest of the footage is single-animal.

    I saw a jerboa last week. It was slowly hopping left and right at first. I thought they can't run fast and tried to go near it. Suddenly it started to jump away. It was incredibly fast. It disappeared from sight in three or four seconds. Then I searched it on Google as "mouse like rabbit" and found out it was a jerboa.

    The Jerboa is probably the most alien creature I've ever seen. Yes there are Platypuses, Mantis shrimp, and whatever lives in the depths of the ocean. But the jerboa... It's like it belongs from another version of earth... Its odd proportions, long legs and possibly the shortest arms of any mammal. The other animals, they have features that are common among other animals in their environment. But I've seen no rodent like the jerboa. It's just so weird
