Thank you for the SOTD, and for the kind comments!
Marta, we find them to be very interesting animals to observe,
and their bad reputation exaggerated. I hope you have the
opportunity some day to observe and enjoy them!
Ava T-B He is doing well although he
has a deformed right foot which causes
him to limp. He was one of our two males
last year. With his bad foot, it was rather
a surprise to see him back this year!
Now we are awaiting emergence of babies
from the natal burrow. That should be
sometime in mid to late May.
Groundhogs mate in spring. Babies are
born usually around April. On our Michigan
property, the babies emerge in May and
disperse at the end of July or early August.
They only have one liter in a year.
