This is a lifer for me. They are only found across the central portions of AZ and NM; this is a very restricted range for a chipmunk. Ava T-B would be happy to hear that this is the first of this species on PN.

He sure is!
Awesome little guy, isn't he!
Thanks!

Excellent. Thank you for the information.

Yes. The only other in the area is a Cliff Chipmunk. It does not have the well defined stripes on the back like this one.
So you are sure that it is the gray-collared chipmunk?
This species has a very limited range!
Ah, you are welcome. I did my best.
too cute!
Thanks Jocelyn! You were spot on.
I think this is a gray-collared chipmunk or a least chipmunk, but I am not certain.
