Meet Stubby, The Chipmunk

A Chipmunk with a Shortened Tail

I’m surprised I don’t see more chipmunks along the millpond trail. The public likes to feed them and in other nearby parks, they are abundant. This is one of the few I’ve seen and he’ll be easy to identify in the future. He’s had an unfortunate encounter with another beast or a slammed door. His tail has been clipped. But he looks very healthy otherwise and was kind enough to pose for me … until he discovered I didn’t have any treats for him.
