The Arctic Ground Squirrel is a small, rodent-like creature that is found in the colder climates of the world.

They are well adapted to life in the Arctic, with their thick orange fur and sharp claws that help them dig tunnels and escape predators.

These squirrels live in burrows that they dig themselves, and eat a variety of foods including seeds, nuts, insects, and even carrion. They are also known to store food for later use.
