This little guy was so adorable. He stayed like this. Just blinking for a couple minutes. Making sure it was safe to come out. I know many people say woodchuck or groundhogs are pests. But come on... This face is adorable.. Don't you think?

@minx267 That's a great fallacy. We don't have bears or pumas or moose. Most Australians have never seen a live snake or a crocodile.

@Shavkat because they can get rather big. and they have rather big claws and teeth. they need to dig and chew all the time.

on the contrary, he was very shy and stayed in this position as I photographed him from my car. careful not to move... when he saw no signs of movement after a couple of minutes. he finally came out and started walking around and eating..

Woodchucks are related to Squirrels. Isn't it? . Looks so adorable.

I think he has a very sweet face. And they don't mean any harm. They're just going about their business, after all. Thanks for sharing his picture with us!

It's a Groundhog, or woodchuck. They go by both names.
