There are many species of rats [surprisingly] And yes Some species of rats are Endangered And some are even Extinct! Rats in a whole are not endangered because they can reproduce in many numbers.
Rats are a type of mammal, and as such, they reproduce in essentially the same way that other mammals do. Baby rats gestate in their mother's uterus and when they are ready, they come out. The major difference between the birth of rats and the birth of human beings is that rats always have multiple births. They are born in litters. Humans are usually born one at a time.
No, hamsters and rats are different species so can't reproduce. I would have thought rats and hamsters would probably fight, as Syrian hamsters are extremely territorial and rats are so much larger than hamsters anyway.

Rats have poor eyesight but great hearing and smell. Over decades, rats have adapted to be very wary of humans; rats breed and reproduce at alarming rates, and like birds, are excellent disease carriers, so they have been exterminated and feared by humans for a long time. Even my own pet rat is cautious when I feed him new treats. They are definitely smart enough to learn to avoid poisons and traps. I have even noticed how difficult it was to recapture my rat when he was an adolescent and he escaped. Poisons and traps are still used to rid homes of rats, and they are still effective; however, rats in particular can often cause problems when people need to get rid of wild rats, because of their ability to learn.
