This chipmunk is one of the lucky ones - it has a tail. Today we saw a number of them chasing each other around the back yard; one with half a tail we named 'Stumpy' and one with no tail at all, we named 'Dock'. I can only think that these two have managed to escape the clutches of either a hungry hawk or the neighbour's cat. Far better to have no tail than no life eh? We named this one 'Chippette' as we think it may be a female, very cute and very tame!
