Chipmunks: a type of a ground squirrel, originally referred to as red or striped squirrels
They eat nuts, grains, birds' eggs, fungi, worms, and insects. They live in burrows about 10 ft (3.3 meters) long
with separate food, sleeping, and toilet areas. There are several hidden burrow entrances.
While Rodents
do not transmit rabies, viral and bacterial infections are likely to be transmitted to humans if bitten.
