Easily recognized by their ruddy brown coat and distinct black and white stripes that run down their backs, these creatures are a common sight across the eastern United States and Canada. They primarily dwell in wooded areas and parks, where they have adapted remarkably to the presence of humans. Eastern Chipmunks are active foragers, known for their characteristic cheek pouches used to transport food. They play a crucial role in their ecosystems, not only as prey for predatorial species but also in seed dispersion, contributing to the health and spread of many plant species.
