- " the breeding season for Campbell's dwarf hamster is different, depending on the location" - how about "varies by location" or similar? More concision needed
- Check comma usage throughout
- "Campbell's dwarf hamster marks it scent around its territory using harderian glands, skin glands located behind the ears, urine and feces for communication" - grammar. Some general copy-editing needed
- "The lowest tolerated temperature from a laboratory experiment showed that Campbell's dwarf hamster can resist temperatures" - phrasing
- "The tunnel...are usually" - grammar
- "The diets of the three types of hamsters are different to avoid fighting over the same type of food" - which came first? That is, did they switch diets to avoid competition or do they live together because their diets were different to begin with?
- "they may be found yurts" - grammar
- "males are at higher risk to predators" - do you mean "from predators"?
- "the breeding season begins towards the middle of April in Tuva and towards the end of April in Mongolia... in Mongolia, it begins in May" - which is correct?
- "In captivity, the gestation period for Campbell's dwarf hamster is between 18–20 days and the shortest gestation period recorded for a captive female was 13 days...oher females have a gestation period of approximately five days" - which is correct?
- "Females are usually sexually mature at two weeks of age...females become sexually mature at two months of age" - which is correct? Check for other inconsistencies
- "Female hamsters that live with the male hamsters after mating" - how typical is this behaviour?
