Field Notes

Description:

Least chipmunk at Rainbow Curve in Rocky Mountain National Park.

Habitat:

Various.

Notes:

These photos were taken with an iPhone camera and unfortunately these little guys were way to habituated to humans. They were coming right up to people begging for scraps! It's important to spread the word that feeding wild animals, no matter how cute, changes their behavior for the worse!
