A Couple of Remarkably Trained Hamsters Compete Against Each Other in a Tiny Agility Contest

Two remarkably trained hamsters named Dumptruck and Porkchop of April’s Animals competed against one another in an adorable agility contest. Dumptruck went first, scoring a respectable time. Porkchop went much faster, but needed an assist through one of the jumps, costing her a 2-second penalty. Both hamsters ran a good race, but ultimately Dumptruck went home with the gold.
