Standard Puzzle Hamster

SCIENTIFIC CLASSIFICATION: Mesocricetus aenigma SIZE: 1 SPH (7.5" x 3.5" x 3.5" / 19cm x 7.6cm x 7.6cm) TEMPERMENT: Docile and Inquisitive UPDATE: The May 2022 assault on our facilities has been thwarted, and the hamsters have retreated back to their secret lair... until next time. The Standard Puzzle Hamster (M. aenigma) is a rare and remarkable species. Generations of natural selection have cumulated in a large yet consistent size, soft fur, and the ability to sit very still for photographs. The SPH can be elusive. Known to appear only around the time of puzzle harvests, it is thought that their keen sense of smell picks up the distinctive scent of fresh challenges. Once lured from their hiding places, they may be captured by any puzzler quick-witted enough to decipher their location. Take note! Though they have never been seen to move, they are extremely fast when no one is watching. If you want to catch one for yourself, you need to act quickly. The colony is keen to avoid detection and move on to their next hiding spot soon after their emergence. Once they flee, they will only reappear when the next crop of new puzzles is released. We never know exactly where they will appear,
