🐿️Groundhog
우드척(Marmota monax)은 다람쥐과에 속하는 설치류의 일종이다. "마멋류"로 알려진 대형 땅다람쥐의 일종이다. "휘파람돼지", "마못쥐", '땅돼지", "캐나다마멋" 등의 이름으로도 알려져 있다. 1758년 칼 폰 린네가 처음 과학적으로 기술했다. "모낙스"(monax)라는 종소명은 "땅을 파는 동물"이라는 의미의 아메리카 원주민이 부르던 이름에서 유래했다. 노란배마멋과 흰등마멋과 같은 다른 마멋류는 바위와 산악 지대에서 살지만, 우드척은 저지대에서 서식한다. 북아메리카에 널리 분포하며, 미국 북동부와 중부 지역과 캐나다에서 흔하게 발견된다. 알래스카주와 같은 먼 북쪽 지역과 남동부의 조지아주에서도 발견된다. 천적은 퓨마, 붉은스라소니, 코요테, 늑대, 여우, 아메리카흑곰, 아메리카오소리, 맹금류 다.
