What is a groundhog
A ground hog is a small mammal belonging to the squirrel family. They are also known as woodchucks and are found in North America. Groundhogs are well-known for their behavior on February 2nd, also celebrated as Groundhog Day. According to folklore, if a groundhog emerges from its burrow on this day and sees its shadow, it means six more weeks of winter. However, if it doesn’t see its shadow, it indicates an early spring. Groundhogs are fascinating creatures that hibernate during winter and are mainly herbivorous, feeding on plants, fruits, and vegetables. They play an important role in ecosystems, and their burrowing activities help aerate the soil. Groundhogs are admirable creatures to observe!
