Visitors to North American forests are frequently rewarded with by the sight of this charming creature (Tamias striatus) scurrying around in its search for food. If they are very lucky they will see one having a sand bath, rolling from side to side on the dry ground.
The eastern chipmunk spends much of its time foraging for food in trees, displaying the typical chipmunk habit of collecting dry food in cheek pouches to store underground. Chipmunks do not hibernate in winter but drop into a period of torpor for up to eight days at a time. The body temperature and heart rate drop to conserve energy and the chipmunk occasionally boosts its reserves by raiding its cache of food.
