Sciurids

The family Sciuridae contains the marmots (groundhogs, woodchuck), prairie dogs, squirrels, and chipmunks.

The Squirrel Place. Dennis Owca. A great site on the squirrels of the world including those found in North America. You'll find a list of all of the squirrel species of the world, photographs of many of the species, squirrel facts and trivia, squirrel reclamation, basic squirrel information, nest boxes and feeders, and much more. Highly recommended.

The Chipmunk Place. Dennis Owca. I don't know about you, but chipmunks are just about our favorite animal despite the devastation they do to our yard. How can you hate anything this cute. This wonderful site has basic information about chipmunks, their diets and biology, and a gallery of photographs of the chipmunks of North America. Highly recommended.

Mammals of Socorro County, New Mexico. Photographs and information on several species of sciurids occuring in the southwestern United States.

The Marmot Burrow. D.T. Blumstein. The ultimate Marmot (groundhog) site including information, and sometimes photographs, of all of the North American species of Marmots. Old World species are treated as well and the site also includes Marmot calls, a marmot bibliography, and a discussion of groundhog (woodchuck) lore.
