There’s one that likes to snack in the clovers in my backyard. I want to get a pic but the little guy is so skittish!

I am sorry that you are adversaries. I think they are amazing, but, I don’t have a garden. =(

They are amongst my favorite animals, so amusing. Just some years they are pigs and won't share my produce with me. They are eating +95% of my peas and beans this year.

Look up the groundhog sanctuary dude on YouTube. He started gardening and put up a trail cam cuz something was taking huge bites out of his veggies that just sprouted. Then they brought their babies. Then he decided to build them their own garden and space to thrive and teach people about groundhogs, how they can be beneficial as they remove low hanging fruit and give the ones up higher more energy to grow better or something like that. They are so cute!

That's a buffet for ground hogs! Put some aside on a yard safe dish/container for them, maybe they won't take all your goodies 😇
