	Hamster - MSN Encarta
		Hamster, common name for any of several rodents characterized by large food-carrying cheek pouches, thick fur, and a short tail.
		Hamsters live in many-chambered burrows 1 to 1.5 m (4 to 5 ft) below the surface of the ground in fields; they subsist mostly on cereal grains and may extensively damage crops.
		The fur of some hamsters, notably the unusually colored, fl-bellied hamster, is used for the lining of coats, and the flesh is sometimes eaten.
