Frog And The Chipmunk

At the beginning autumn, many species chipmunk begin to stockpile these goods in their burrows, for winter. Other species make multiple small caches food. These two kinds behavior are called larder hoarding and scatter hoarding. Larder hoarders usually live in their nests until spring. Cheek pouches allow chipmunks to carry multiple food items to their burrows for either storage or consumption.
