Lol... mmarotta, " I think that it is a rabbit. " kvasir, " looks like a rat to me. " satootoko, " A ferrit or weasel? " LOL
we call those things "squinnies" (or a squinny). Although I like the sound of the word "marmot" its kinda fun to say! lol
I think you need to go rabbit hunting or at least go and watch them.... This is more like a rat but a ferrit seems good too Speedy
It looks more like a Chipmunk to me, otherwise called a Ground Squirrell in Tennessee or a Mountain Boomer in West Virginia! Some West Virginians call them West Virginia Mountain Lions since they make as much noise as a Mountain Lion when they running through the Fall leaves. Frank
