GROUNDHOG DAY

MONDAY  2nd  FEBRUARY  WAS...

GROUNDHOG DAY!!


Groundhog Day is a celebration of marmots, a group of large squirrel-like animals that includes groundhogs, woodchucks and ground squirrels. Even though marmots are found all over the world, from Canada to Mexico and from Russia to India, these animals don’t seem to get the attention they deserve. 

Marmot Day festivities take many different forms. Marmot Day is an official holiday in Alaska, and it typically involves a family dinner where marmot jokes and anecdotes are shared.

To learn more about this day you can see this video!

What does the marmot predict for this year?
