What is a Chipmunk?
A chipmunk is a small, striped rodent that lives in forests, woodlands, and even gardens. Chipmunks are part of the squirrel family and are known for their cheek pouches, which they use to store food like nuts and seeds. They are quick and curious, always on the move collecting snacks or digging burrows. Most chipmunks live for 2 to 3 years and weigh just a few ounces. They make chirping or clucking sounds when they sense danger. Their soft fur is usually reddish-brown with dark and light stripes on their backs. Chipmunks sleep in cozy underground tunnels and love to come out during the day to explore.
