Groundhog

Marmota monax

Description:

Hahaha, what do you know, a groundhog. I wonder what it's doing out so early since Winter isn't anywhere close. A fun fact, did you know groundhogs are squirrels? They, prairie dogs, and marmots are all ground squirrels.

Habitat:

Found throughout North America.

Notes:

Photo credit to my friend Aaron Gass, who out of support for my Noah has given me permission to use his photos of animals I have seen but not photographed. I insist he make his own, but he isn't interested.
