Biomes can be spread across continents and although they share similar characteristics, there will be differences in the species of plants and animals that live in those locations.

The cage is very easy to put together and once assembled sits on four wheels which makes it pretty easy for you to move it and your hamster to the best spot in your home. They tend to disappear in the interiors of continents as temperatures become more extreme and precipitation levels fall. A biome is a large naturally occurring community of flora (plants) and fauna (animals) occupying a major habitat.

The word temperate implies that the climate is reasonably stable with not great variation throughout the year. Temperate Boreal Forest - Also known as the taiga, this biome is a northern coniferous (evergreen) forest. Temperate Deciduous Forest - few extremes of climate and can be found in the eastern half of North America, and the west of Europe. It is below freezing at night year round and the meaning of its name comes from Lappish language (Lapland) which means “land with no trees”. Tropical Savannah - A dry and hot area composed of mainly grassland and scattered shrubs and isolated trees, which can be found between a tropical rainforest and desert biome in Africa, Arabia and even Australia.

Found around 30°N and S of the Equator and includes famous examples such as the Sahara, the Namib and Thar deserts.

Chaparral (Mediterranean)– evergreen trees and shrubs in Atlas) – found around the Mediterranean Sea and consists of vegetation that can survive drought conditions within the summer months.

I'm not sure what difference it makes to the hamster but if you want to do your bit for the environment this could help you along your way. The Living World Green Eco Habitat cage is made from rubber wood and is what gives this small animal cage it's name. This cage is the smallest of a range of 3 with the other cages being the Living World Green Eco Habitat Medium and the Living World Green Eco Habitat Large. This cage makes an ideal cage for hamsters that love a bit of space and enables a deep layer of substrate to allow the natural burrowing instinct to kick in.Deciduous forests are found in the mid-latitudes which have reasonably evenly spread rainfall throughout the year and winters that are cool but not cold.
