The eastern Canadian Chipmunk is a member of the squirrel family. It differs from the squirrel in that it is smaller and that it has large cheek pouches capable of storing a large quantity of nuts or seeds which it stores as it retreats back to its burrow. Eastern Canadian Chipmunks are diurnal, meaning that they are active during the day and sleep at night. They have litters of 4-6 kits during the springtime and work tirelessly over the summer months to accumulate food stocks to last through the winter months while it hibernates.
Please enjoy our government produced video documenting the Chipmunk in this episode of Hinterland Who's Who.
