Arctic Ground Squirrel Studies

Alicia,

Ground squirrels seem so cute! I am really excited to follow your expedition and the cool scientific experiment that you and Cory will be using. What's the most interesting thing you have learned about the arctic ground squirrel so far?

Thanks for your comment, Mike! That's a great question about the squirrels. I am pretty fascinated by how low the temperature of the Arctic ground squirrel can drop during hibernation. It drops below freezing during hibernation!
