Today I see one cartoon movie, Alvin and the Chipmunks. The plot is concerned about the three chipmunks that live with people. The three chipmunks can speak and sing a song like human. I think that this movie is very cool. Every age can see a movie happily. I never know chipmunk before so this topic is written about chipmunk. Chipmunks are a small squirrel of the genus Tamias. You can call them in many names such as chip squirrels, chippers, ground squirrels and timble tigers that they are referred to follow the sound they make.
They live in eastern North America and western North America. They eat both of plants and animals consisting of insects, worms, fungi, bird's eggs, fruit, nut ,grain and sometimes small mammals. Their cheek can carry multiple food items to their burrows for storage. They live in burrows which have more than 3.5 meter in length. At the beginning of autumn, they begin to keep many food in their burrows.
Eastern chipmunks mate in early spring and again in early summer. They have four to five babies twice a year but Nortern chipmunks only mate once a year. The baby chipmunks leave form burrow after about six weeks. I think that chipmunk is a lovely anmimal. I want to study about the chipmunk more because chipmunk is interesting animal to me.
