Goldman's pocket mouse (Chaetodipus goldmani) is a species of rodent in the family Heteromyidae.[2] It is endemic to Mexico, where it is threatened by the increasing conversion of its dry, scrubby habitat into agricultural land. As a result, the International Union for Conservation of Nature has assessed its conservation status as being "near threatened".
