Caution
Hamsters belong to the rodent subfamily
cricetinae. They are well-known house pets
and also used as experimental animals. In the
wild, they live in nest holes in dry regions
from Europe to Asia. Wild hamsters are few
in number, and are considered endangered.
Nocturnal animals, they have a thick fur coat
and primarily eat fruits and nuts. This paper-
craft hamster is fashioned after the Syrian
hamster.
