When a baby groundhog wants to be your friend

Baby groundhog comes running up to us in the yard. Looking for cute and funny baby animal videos? Watch this short video of a cute groundhog approaching to make a new human friend. This friendly wild groundhog then hangs out with its baby groundhog siblings outside the groundhog burrow underneath our shed.
Looks like Big Poppa the Notorious B I Groundhog and his lady friend Honey had babies this year! These little groundhogs are very small and just starting to explore outside the groundhog hole. How old do you think these cute baby animals are?

There's a male gopher that lives under a house I store stuff in. I feed him lettuce and stuff. Not sure if I'd ever pet him but I like having him around.

[@tinythesquirrel]

We love the groundhogs! We have a male called Big Poppa and a female named Honey. This is the first spring we’ve seen them with babies and we are so thrilled. Garden beware! 😆🌷💋🐿️

[@johnnyfreedom3437]

Too cute when he came up to invite the human in to the party!

[@tinythesquirrel]

It was very unexpected! This was the first day that we approached the shed to try to get a peek at the babies. Guess they wanted a peek at the hoomans too! 🥰💋🐿️

[@annchayer8017]

Lol they were popping out from everywhere! Too cute! 💜

[@tinythesquirrel]

Thank you! They have been such a treat to watch! More footage of the adorable fluff balls coming soon. 😊💋🐿️

[@snowysnowyriver]

Look at those beautiful little munchkins!! ❤❤❤

[@tinythesquirrel]

They are beautiful munchkins indeed! 🥰💋🐿️

[@JaRule6]

Groundhogs are like toddlers. As a gardener, I consider them to be my nemesis but they're so stinking cute that I can't stay mad at them. I just wish that we could come to an agreement. Such as, they can eat stuff that needs to be pinched back until late summer. Or they can stick to eating the clover that we put in the lawn. 😂😂😂

[@tinythesquirrel]

We can’t stay mad at them either. They enjoy clover and many other plants over here. 😆💋🐿️

[@tinydancer36]

What a brave little one!! So cute!

[@tinythesquirrel]

So cute and brave indeed. 😊 Thank you for watching! 💋🐿️

[@TheJabady]

They’re really cute when they’re babies!!!

[@tinythesquirrel]

We think they’re cute as adults too, just a lot more destructive. 😆💋🐿️

[@Trund27]

Absolutely gorgeous creatures.

[@tinythesquirrel]

We agree. 😊💋🐿️

[@broomrider4699]

He looks like he might be the runt of the litter, but certainly the most brave! ❤❤❤❤

[@tinythesquirrel]

We think so too! He was the first to be out exploring in the grass for himself too! So brave and adorable! 😊💋🐿️

[@StopWhining491]

They look like they need to be snuggled.

[@tinythesquirrel]

They do!!! 🥰❤️💋🐿️

So true! It’s cuteness overload! We hope to share more of these little adorable furballs soon! ☺️💋🐿️

Looks like it is a rave since everyone is hooked on weed.

[@tinythesquirrel]

😆We are happy for these cutie pies to eat all the weeds they want. 😊💋🐿️

[@NeoRipshaft]

omfg they're so cute!!! I've lived around groundhogs for years now and never seen a wee bebe groundhog outside of their den. I've seen plenty of baby skunks (which are quite possibly the cutest little fellas ever) and some juvenile Raccoons while they're in their brief 'no skittishness' phase of development but never groundhogs 😭- very glad you got to see em =D

[@tinythesquirrel]

The baby skunks and raccoons sound adorable! We haven’t seen any of those. Thank you for watching! 😊💋🐿️

Awww so cute. New subscriber here from Illinois.

[@tinythesquirrel]

Thank you! These cutie pies are a joy to watch. You’ll be seeing them again soon. 🥰Very happy to have you as a subscriber! ☺️💋🐿️

[@arribaficationwineho32]

Do they live under there or just hang out? So cute.

[@tinythesquirrel]

Their parents Big Poppa and Honey live under the shed. As the little ones get older, they may look for their own spot, but for now we have 6 groundhogs living under the shed! ☺️💋🐿️

[@Lady-bc2xi]

Did you take them all home with you? Lol. Would've been hard not to!!

[@tinythesquirrel]

These little cuties appeared under the shed in our backyard, so we have the cutest neighbors. 🥰💋🐿️

[@Techhunter_Talon]

Adorable little guys. They're far less skittish than the one that lives around where I live.

[@tinythesquirrel]

Thank you! The adults here are very skittish. Not sure if the babies are just too little to listen to mama’s warning about the hoomans. 😊💋🐿️

[@Jo-oc8sc]

Marmots are prolific poopers !

[@tinythesquirrel]

Here comes the fertilizer. Thanks for the warning! 😆💋🐿️

[@charlottesmom]

We had 2 babies and a momma living in our backyard in a hole the mom dug by our stone wall. The two babies were so cute!! Our dumba s s neighbor saw them and Havaheart trapped them and moved them. I was pissed but they did go in his yard too and luckily he didn’t kill them. This was 3 years ago or so. I just spotted an adult in our yard the other day so maybe he only moved the babies, I hadn’t seen any groundhogs for a few years though so who knows, I was just happy to see another one.

[@tinythesquirrel]

I’m happy you have another one now too! That would be hard to suddenly lose your groundhog family. Wishing you and your little groundhog all the best! 😊💋🐿️

[@Kimik-oy4pc]

Aww

Spring of 2023 there was a single groundhog baby living with his mom in an old drainage pipe at the end of my driveway. Id put food out for him and mom. The baby was a pudgy lil thing so i named him MR. Puggles. He was in my yard and got scared by a car or something and ran straight up my driveway. He stood up on his back legs and looked left, but there was a railroad tie retaining wall, looked straight a concrete wall, looked right my house. He kept looking left, right, straight, right, left, right... he seemed so lost and confused as to how get out of there when had he turned around and went the way he came he wouldve been fine, which he finally did but there was about 20 seconds of sheer terror in his eyes. It was funny, now MR. Puggles is grown and went off to find a Mrs. Puggles and make little baby puggles.

[@tinythesquirrel]

Wishing Mr. Puggles a long happy life! 🥰💋🐿️

Living in PA my wife used to call me "groundhog man". They just took to me like they were pets.

[@tinythesquirrel]

Love the nickname! Thank you for watching! 😊💋🐿️

[@petegregory517]

@@tinythesquirrel Had one back in the late ‘70’s chase my golf ball around the green. Just a lil guy, I’d tap it and he’d chase it, mess with it then run off, I’d tap it again he’d run back in, funny as could be. Had about 6-7 people laughing their butts off. Later.

[@tinythesquirrel]

@@petegregory517 How funny! This reminds me a bit of Caddyshack. Adorable! 😆💋🐿️

The white subtitles are difficult to see. Is there a way to add an outline to them so they stand out from the background better?

Thank you for the feedback! We are investigating options. 👍💋🐿️

Definitely tempting! 😆💋🐿️

Baby whistle pigs are cute. Not very smart sometimes but they are very cute.

[@tinythesquirrel]

They really are the cutest. 🥰💋🐿️

[@JanisOnTheFarmette]

Oh, yeah, freaking adorable until the day you’re walking in your garden and the ground gives out under you and you find yourself with a leg sunk to above the knee into one of their tunnels. I felt lucky not to have broken anything, unlike the girl down the road who experienced the same thing and broke her leg. They really are cute, but I’d be happy to never see one again on my own property.

[@tinythesquirrel]

Sorry that happened to you and your neighbor. Thanks for the warning! 👍💋🐿️

[@alexiachimciuc3199]

Do they taste good?

[@tinythesquirrel]

If you are what you eat, they must be delicious because they are full of fresh veggies and flowers, but we won’t be finding out. 😆💋🐿️
