Many different species of hamsters exist throughout the world inhabiting semi-desert areas. Only 5 are kept in captivity: Syrian, Dwarf Campbells Russian, Dwarf Winter White Russian, Chinese, and Roborovski. Hamsters burrow many tunnels and keep separate chambers to store food or sleep. These nocturnal rodents have poor eyesight, but their senses of smell and hearing are keen. Their long sharp incisor teeth necessitate gnawing to prevent overgrowth. They’re an excellent choice for a first-time pet owner.
