    we've lived here 5 years, just saw one sitting on our river steps and came here to verify what I thought it was :)

    I use to be in the military, and at least two of the bases I was posted to in Ontario had thousands of groundhogs, living everywhere there was grass. At one of the bases, I lived in a barracks for about a year, and on the ground floor, there was an outer hallway, with continuous windows on the side which faced out. The hallway was technically half underground with a kind of grassy berm, which came right up to the bottom of the line of windows, at about waist level. Right where it met the windows was a large opening to a burrow of groundhogs. Every morning before work, I’d go look out the windows in that hall and see the little babies sitting right there, waiting for mommy to lead them out. It reminded me of like a groundhog exhibit at a zoo. Lol

    Lucy was not an ancestor of us humans. She was a sedge-munching, perpetually facultatively wading proto-gorilla. NOT A PROTO_HUMAN.

    I just finished reading "Lucy, the beginnings of humankind", one of the best books I've read. I didn't think I could listen to Johansen lecture on these topics. Surely, despite my young age, I was lucky enough to know his scientific production, which does not have an age, it is not one of the fossils that the professor (and his colleagues) found, actually, the opposite, it has the power to see into the future, sinking its roots into a past millions of years away.

    My dod and I stepped outside and something HUGE scurried up the tree- we were so startled, but we had startled a woodchuck/groundhog! I've NEVER seen one climb a tree it was so strange. They are cute though, i didn't know they were in the squirrel family.

    This the same Lucy that was discovered to be just a chimpanzee. Fake drawings and models in museums of lucy to make her look more human without enough of the actual fossils. Heckel's fake drawing, peltdown man tons of frauds in evolutionary science.

    I had a big chunk of a groundhog make tunnels and a burrow under my shed. Ruined my shed floor But oh well. Every once in awhile if I saw him out and about I'd play a sound of a groundhog alert whistle and he'd whistle back and it was too funny. Nobody believed me until I proved it to them. Hahaha

    19, wow! I must've missed a few because I only counted 17 new species of praying mantises. And all from 2014?! I was in school at the time when the episode aired on Wild Kratts. And I have just learned wayyy later on that this species of praying mantis is discovered and named in honor of the Kratt brothers for their hard work in protecting the animals of the world.

    Right in town we have 'em. I had a groundhog high rise , three way tunnels in a mound of moved earth from after digging a basement wall. Now they are next door under their big porch. I saw two little ones run past me the other day. I keep them out but a family of 3 squirrels enjoy under the roof video monitored housing with me.

    Destroyed my property and damaged a foundation to my deck. Tried for more then a year with different ways but enough was enough. They don’t listen or care and when property is damaged then the game changes. .22 air rifle took care of the problem once and for all
