This is a series of 10 geocaches placed in honor of the groundhog. Each year groundhogs enjoy 15 minutes of fame before most people proceed to forget about them completely. So in honor of Groundhog Day here are some little-known facts about these annual celebrities.
Farmers consider them pests. Those impressive tunneling skills make for great burrows, but they can also mean big headaches for those in the agricultural profession. They dig fairly extensive burrows, and tractors can break an axle driving over them. And since the animals are herbivores—and prefer tender, young greens—they can make nuisances of themselves by raiding crops. Soybeans, corn, family gardens, it’s all a banquet in the eyes of a groundhog. But some can be more discerning.
