Second, with a rhino you would most likely lose it but with a giant hamster you would AlWAYS be able to find it. You could also have a room dedicated for the hamster. It would be hard to train a rhino that is so tiny but you could train a hamster. Some may argue that it would take up to much space, it would cost to much money, and it would be to big to take care of. But I disagree. I would much rather have a giant hamster than a tiny rhino.

Another reason why is because I could trample people in my wheel. Some people may argue that being a tiny Rhino is better because you could still hurt people with your tusks. I disagree because a giant Hamster could kill the Rhino by stepping on it, and if it poked the giant Hamster, it feel like stepping on a lego.

Some might even laugh at me, but I would be the biggest hamster ever. Secondly, I could be really annoying and say, " Mreep" all day long everyone would think I could talk. Finally, I could bite people and they would yell and have a few choice phrases for me. However, some may want to be a small rhino because they could hide easily. The benefits of being a large hamster beats out a rhino for me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Second, you could sneak up on people without them seeing you. Finally, if was playing hide and seek or something, it would be hard to find me. However, some may argue that being a giant hamster would be better because you could get people to do what you say because they might be afraid of a huge hamster walking around. And, you might not get stepped on. But I think being a small rhino would be best!!!!!

In soccer I would play goalie and block lots of shots. These are just a few of the reasons I would be a giant hamster over a small rhino. Some may argue that being a small rhino is better. For example, you couldn't be seen as much and you could sneak food at nighttime when your parents were asleep. You could also get into small places. I would want to be a giant hamster than being a small rhino.

I think being a giant hamster is better than being a tiny rhino.

Although having a small rhino is the better choice some may argue that having a big hamster would awesome. First of all, You wouldn’t have enough room for it. I also think having a small rhino would be better to have in general. That is why I want a small rhino
ReplyDeleteI would rather be a tiny rhino because I would be cute. I would not really have to worry about stepping on someone. If I did they would probably not care because i’m cute.Some might say that they would rather be a giant hamster because you could reach high things. You could jump high, but if you were a tiny rhino, you could get in tiny places. You would be cute. That’s why I would want to be a tiny rhino.
ReplyDeleteIf I had a choice between a giant hamster and a tiny rhino I would choose a tiny rhino. First I would choose the tiny rhino because I don’t like hamsters so I don’t think that I would like a big one. Second I would have a tiny rhino because I think that they would be adorible. But maybe someone may want to be a giant hamster because they think it could be fun. But I would be a tiny rhino.
ReplyDeleteI would rather be a tiny rhino because I would be supper cute. I could go to tiny places that only I could go because I would be so small. Besides, if I step on any one, they would not care at all because I was adorable. Tiny rhinos are cute so I would be cute I f I was a tiny rhino.
ReplyDeleteIf I had the choice of being a GIANT hamster or a tiny rhino, I would choose being a giant hamster. I would rather be a giant hamster because you would be so cute and fluffy and fat you would be the cutest animal on earth, and you could rule the world because there is basically nothing bigger or taller than you except a huge building or a strange human being or your sibling. Also, it would be very fun being able to walk across the world in a matter of seconds. Also, everyone would want to see you so you would be super popular around the world. You could easily join the race for the president of anywhere because everyone would definitely vote for you. Also, if you were a tiny rhino people could think you were a weird little creature maybe even a robotic toy that could walk around and move. Also, usually regular sized rhinos trample other people and are known to kill two humans at the leased, but some people might just look at this and say oh it’s just a few people a lot of different animals kill way more people than that. But really it’s two more people's lives vanished because of an animal plus the human was probably just looking at it not trying to harm it and the rhino made its move. In this case though the rhino is tiny so they can’t trample other people like regular rhinos do they are the ones getting trampled in this case. I think more tiny rhinos would be killed than regular rhinos kill humans. Also, it would be hard to get food if you were that tiny because rhinos are used to eating other animals or even humans so they usually get a lot of food to eat but if they were tiny they would have to eat crumbs or tiny little pieces of trash. On the other hand though giant hamsters can basically eat anything they want humans, buildings, and a lot more anything you can think of really because they are giants. If someone wants to challenge you in a fight you could just sit on the thing until it says I give up. Also, if you think about it who would win a tiny rhino or a giant hamster? You are basically saying who would win a giant or a little person. Also, I am used to being a tall person but imagine about 10 times my size but instead of a human it would be a giant furball. However, some may argue being a tiny rhino would be a lot better because people could think you were cuter than being a giant hamster or people could think you were a little toy and you could make a pet. Although some may think being a tiny rhino would be a lot better than being a giant hamster I still think being a giant hamster would be a lot better than being a tiny rhino because of all of those reasons even though some may argue being a tiny rhino is a lot better than being a giant hamster.
ReplyDeleteI would rather have a giant hamster rather than a tiny rhino. First of all, the hamster could be very cute and extremely fluffy. With the hamster being so fluffy and big, I could lay on top of it if I was watching TV or maybe even reading a book. Secondly, you could play with the giant hamster. For example, if you were on a trampoline you could jump up in the air and then land on top of the hamster. I think it would feel weird and good because you can feel how chubby it is, and how fluffy it feels. Furthermore, I used to always want to have a hamster because of how chubby they look. When they play in their little habitat, run through their small tunnels, and run on their hamster wheels it looks so cute when they do it. I also think that tiny rhinos would not be too fun to play with or do things with it. For example, if you stepped on it because it was so small it could hurt your foot. It might hurt your foot because it has a horn on its body. Even know the horn might be small, it could still possibly hurt. Another reason you might not want to play or do things with the rhino is because you might keep it in a cage or let it roam around your house. If you kept the rhino in a cage you could only see the rhino do things, not play with it. Also, if you didn’t keep it in a cage you would have to be very cautious about where you step, so youyou don’t step on it. The tiny rhino could get into places you don’t want it to go, and on accident it could use its horn to hit something or even brake something. Some people might think that having a tiny rhino instead of a giant hamster is better. For example, if you were just holding it in your lap where it couldn’t escape, it might be cute to see the rhino to just move around a little bit in your lap. Also, if you made a small game for the rhino like a maze. You could wacth it try to get through the small maze and just look around thinking like the maze is big. Though, there are some reasons I think that having a giant hamster is better than having a tine rhino. Usually rhinos are big, but if you had a tiny rhino. I would wonder what you would feed it. Rhinos usually kill animals to get food, but with the size they are, it would be pretty hard to kill anything. I would also wonder what they could eat because they can’t really kill anything, and finally I would wonder what other types of food they would eat. I think having a big hamster would be better than having tiny rhino.
