Groundhog
Groundhogs (Marmota monax) are rodents in the family Sciuridae. They belong to the group of large ground squirrels known as marmots. This lowland creature is widely distributed in North America and common in the northeastern and central United States and Canada. Although considered by farmers to be a nuisance, groundhogs have become part of popular culture through Groundhog Day and the film of the same name.Photograph: Cephas
