Etymology
Groundhogs are able to climb trees to escape.
The etymology of the name woodchuck is unrelated to wood or chucking. It stems from an Algonquian (possibly Narragansett) name for the animal, wuchak. The similarity between the words has led to the common tongue-twister:
How much wood would a woodchuck chuck
- if a woodchuck could chuck wood?
-
A woodchuck would chuck all the wood he could
if a woodchuck could chuck wood![12]
[edit] In popular culture
- One of Robert Frost‘s best known poems is “A Drumlin Woodchuck,” in which he uses the imagery of a woodchuck dug in to a small ridge as a metaphor for his emotional reticence.
- A woodchuck figures prominently in the movie Groundhog Day.
