***About Eastern Chipmunks:

*** Eastern Chipmunks, scientifically known as Tamias striatus, are small, striped rodents commonly found in North America. These agile creatures are easily recognizable by their ruddy brown fur marked with distinctive white and black stripes running down their backs. Typically found in wooded areas and suburban gardens, Eastern Chipmunks are ground dwellers that enjoy a diet primarily composed of nuts, seeds, and berries, though they occasionally consume insects and small reptiles. Known for their cheek pouches, they can carry food items to their burrows, where they store provisions for the winter. Despite their size, they play a crucial role in forest ecosystems by dispersing seeds and spurring germination, contributing significantly to habitat regeneration and diversity.
