What is the correct and safest method of picking up a hamster? A. Grasp it by placing your thumb and index finger around its lower jaw. B. Grasp the loose skin on the back of its neck. C. Scoop it up with a small net. D. Pick it up at the base of its tail.
The only logical answer is B because picking up the hamster by the loose skin on the back of its neck immobilizes the hamster, but does not harm the creature. This is the safest method because the hamster cannot hurt you.
