Hoary Marmot (Marmota caligata)
Number 0002
Hello, hoary marmot! These guys live in northwestern North America from Alaska down into Oregon, Idaho, and Montana. They’re also known as whistlers, and they hibernate from fall to spring, which I could do, too. This is another of Leigh’s requests from his trip through the west a few years ago.
