Kangaroo rats can excrete urine which is 18 times that of their blood. In kangaroo rat, loop of Henle is significantly longer as it descends further into the medulla and produces a higher concentration gradient in the surrounding tissue. This gradient allows more water to diffuse into the surrounding tissues to be reabsorbed.
