Woodchucks don't really chuck wood, (I guess they do in that one TV commercial) maybe that's why they also have the name ground hog. What ever you like to call them it doesn't matter. Did you know that woodchucks can climb trees? I was amazed to find this out. I guess it's not that odd if it is something an animal is supposed to do but I can't help but think it's strange.
Here is your proof |
This just looks so weird to me |
As I did more research I found out that woodchucks can also swim. They are also most closely related to squirrels so I guess that is why they can climb trees. Anyway I hope you enjoyed this little fact.
How cute is that big boy in the tree! :)
ReplyDeleteDarn, I never thought Geico would lie about a Woodchuck chucking wood. Who can trust them now?

I love that commercial. Every time it comes on I get a chuckle out of it. Thanks for sharing some Woodchuck tips with us. Who'd a thunkit?

ReplyDeleteSorry- I could not help it either.
