Background The Mus musculus species complex encompasses a remarkable diversity of subspecies, each adapted to distinct ecological niches. The Siberian subspecies ( M. m. sibiricus ) thrives in cold, high‑latitude environments and displays phenotypic traits that distinguish it from the more commonly used M. m. domesticus and M. m. musculus strains (Baker & Searle, 2014).
In 1995, a field team led by Dr. Masha Babko captured a cohort of wild‑caught Siberian mice near Lake Baikal (coordinates 53° N, 108° E). After a selective breeding program aimed at preserving the original genotype while enhancing colony stability, the resulting line was designated (Moscow Siberian line, 45th breeding generation). The internal laboratory code Lq‑64 reflects the 64‑day gestational synchronisation protocol applied to standardise developmental stages (Petrov et al., 2010).

Our findings have direct implications for the refinement of husbandry protocols, the design of enrichment programs, and the ethical justification of Msh‑45 use in translational research. Msh‑45 ; Siberian mouse; Masha Babko; Lq‑64; laboratory
– While these studies provide a scaffold, none have systematically integrated lifestyle (daily activity budgets, social hierarchy, spatial use) with entertainment (enrichment) outcomes for the Msh‑45 line. 3.

This paper synthesizes 12 years of longitudinal observational data (2008‑2020) from three accredited facilities, integrates findings from recent ethological meta‑analyses, and applies a mixed‑methods approach (quantitative ethograms, automated video tracking, and qualitative caretaker interviews) to construct a comprehensive model of Msh‑45 lifestyle and entertainment. We demonstrate that the line exhibits a uniquely hierarchical social structure, a heightened propensity for , and a preference for multi‑sensory enrichment (thermal, olfactory, acoustic). Moreover, we identify a set of “entertainment modalities” that significantly improve physiological stress markers (corticosterone, heart‑rate variability) and cognitive performance (Morris water maze latency).

A. V. Petrov, apetrov@icn.moscow.ru Abstract The Msh‑45 line of Siberian mice, colloquially known as Masha Babko Lq‑64 , represents a genetically distinct subpopulation derived from a historic wild‑caught stock in the Lake Baikal region. Since its formal establishment in 1998, this line has been employed extensively in neurobehavioral, metabolic, and immunological research. While its phenotypic traits (robust size, dense pelage, and a pronounced circadian rhythm) are well documented, systematic investigations into its lifestyle —including naturalistic behaviours, social organization, and environmental preferences—and entertainment —defined here as the repertoire of self‑stimulating and externally mediated activities that promote welfare—remain scarce.
