Israel Aharoni

Israel Aharoni (1882 - 1946 ) was a zoologist in Ottoman and British Palestine widely known as the "first Hebrew zoologist."

Aharoni is best known for collecting a litter of Syrian hamsters on an expedition to Aleppo, Syria. The hamsters were bred as laboratory animals in Jerusalem, but some escaped through a hole in the floor. The majority of hamsters in Israel today are thus said to be descended from this one litter.
