How Big is a Marmot?
I've seen some pretty big marmots, usually not any longer than 20 inches, but much fatter than the one pictured here. Of course, I've also encountered smaller, more slender marmots.
If you want to see really fat marmots, go out hiking up in the high elevation meadows of the Cascades in mid September. This is right before marmots climb in their burrows to hibernate, so they are spending alot of time eating and getting fat. I've also noticed that marmots seem to be more accepting or ignorant of human presence during this time of year.

As usual brother's cat, this animal is sometimes seen piebald without eliminating the specific color. The animal was slightly longer than the usual cats and never met with entirely black. The back of the roundabout there is a line short black ears. White lines are limited to white color found in the cheek, which emerged from the inner corner of his eye. The stomach is always a lighter color than the hips.
