Funny Cute Saucy Columbian Ground Squirrel Large Christmas Stocking

Add a touch of whimsy and nature to festive year-end celebrations with this wildlife-themed Christmas stocking. Personalise with a name. Reverse (for double-sided option) shows identical design. Great for the nature lover on your gift list! By far, Columbian Ground Squirrels are the most entertaining wildlife at Manning Park, and the first ones to greet us in the parking lot of Manning Park Resort. These Prairie Dogs of the West were positioned near their network of holes in the ground (or in rotted tree stumps) and often calling in an upright position like meerkats or groundhogs (when they weren't chasing each other around or kissing). We found plenty at Manning Park Resort and Lightning Lake (particularly near the picnic tables). Columbian Ground Squirrels spend the short summer bulking up on fat reserves for their hibernation period, which lasts for seven months! Based on the original photography of W.H. Sim.
