Pets: Wild At Heart
We may think of our pets like another member of the family - but they exist in a secret world that we would hardly recognise. In this series new filming techniques reveal our pets' wild behaviour and natural abilities. Using the latest filming techniques, from spycams to thermal imaging and moving x-rays, this series reveals why just a small select group of animals have the perfect characteristics to become human companions. The first episode shows how our pets use play to get in touch with their wild side, while the second episode shows how our pets maintain links with their wild nature.

Welcome to BBC EARTH! The world is an amazing place full of stories, beauty and natural wonder. Here you'll find 50 years worth of entertaining and thought-provoking natural history content. Dramatic, rare, and exclusive, nature doesn't get more exciting than this.

When will they make a hamster wheel that can charge AA and AAA batteries? It could be free electricity for owning a hamster.

My hamster runs on his wheel like he’s getting paid for it.

These are actually Roborovski hamsters. Russian hamsters can’t have that colouration or pattern and are also bigger.

My little sister had a Russian dwarf hamster once. She ran so fast we called her the Russian Rocket. One day she ran so fast she launched herself out of the wheel into the cage wall and died. Thus ended the tale of the Russian Rocket
