Funny Cute Saucy Columbian Ground Squirrel Playing Cards

Hold the winning "wild" card with these nature-themed playing cards! Looking for all the world like it's saying "deal me in!", this bold and saucy Columbian Ground Squirrel is just trying its luck with the two-legged visitors to Manning Park. These Prairie Dogs of the West were positioned near their network of holes in the ground (or in rotted tree stumps) and often calling in an upright position like meerkats or groundhogs (when they weren't chasing each other around or kissing). We found plenty at Manning Park Resort and Lightning Lake (particularly near the picnic tables). Columbian Ground Squirrels spend the short summer bulking up on fat reserves for their hibernation period, which lasts for seven months! Based on the original photography of W.H. Sim.
