  • Hamsters got their name from an old German word "hamstern" associated with storing food.
  • Hamsters were discovered in one of world’s oldest inhabited cities, Aleppo (Syria).
  • Domestication of the hamster began in 1930 when a zoologist found one mother and twelve young hamsters in the Syrian Desert (Aleppo, Syria).
  • In the wild, researchers have found as much as 38 pounds of grain stored in a single burrow.
  • In the wild, hamsters dig extensive tunnels beneath the ground - extending as far as three feet in depth.
  • Hamsters are color blind.
  • Hamsters can only see up to six inches in front of them.
  • Hamsters typically have poor eyesight and depth perception.
  • To compensate for their poor sight when in unfamiliar territory, hamsters have scent glands on their flanks (and abdomens in Chinese and dwarf hamsters). A hamster rubs these areas of his body against various objects, and leaves a trail of smells the hamster can follow to return to his home den.
  • Of about 14 distinct species of hamsters, eight are kept as pets.
  • During winter hibernation, the golden hamster's pulse rate drops from about 400 to 4 beats per minute.
  • Hamsters are nocturnal meaning they sleep during the day and are active during the night.
  • Though classified as nocturnal, most hamsters divide their days with periods of sleeping and waking.
  • Food: mainly seeds, grasses, root vegetables, fruits, corn and pulse crops. Common hamster also eats insects, lizards, frogs and small mammals.
