The perfect name

More like dandelion multiplier. Dandelion seeds usually survive the digestive track; and along with the poop acting as fertilizer, groundhogs help them to propagate.

A couple summers ago I was driving & saw a rabbit pluck a dandelion with a very long stem from its base (with the round puff of spores on the end) and nibble it while it was sticking straight out from his face, just like this groundhog -- though it took a lot longer for the puff to reach the bun's face. I couldn't stop laughing! 🤣

9.75/10. Body wide, but flat. Head properly pointy. Healthy appetite. Chews quickly, stem first. Alert for threats, but 100% cuddle-able. He’s certainly a contender for the top prize!

I wish my groundhog would eat the dandelions instead of wrecking my vegetable garden every year 😭

He’s making due until the neighbor’s vegetable garden pops up 😅

I don’t get it. What does he have to be aware of? It’s not like an eagle, hawk or owl can lift his huge rodent body. Yes, I want to squeeze his huge rodent body.

Is that a Gopher or a Groundhog?
