The Groundhog is a burrowing animal. The second largest rodent in North America, first being the Beaver. It lives underground making large tunnels that connect to different mounds. It mainly eats plants. It is considered a pest to farmers, and golf green maintenance workers because there holes can allow other unwanted animals to enter to the barns and turn a 18 hole golf course into a 32 hole course. But they are great for other species like Coyotes and Burrowing Owls.
