Who am I?

Hiking at Crater Lake National Park we saw this furry little creature. Good summer activity for all of you who love animals. Dig into the who, what, when, where, why and how of this little guy. What do they eat? What elevation are they found? Do they travel higher or lower or do they stay in a particular elevation zone? When do they spend most of their waking hours? To whom are they related? Where are they usually found (Google maps)? For the really curious........how long do they live? How fast does their heart beat? Who are their primary enemies? What do they most like to eat? What most likes to eat them? How many young does the typical female have at one time? What do they do for the winter? The research is endless and hopefully it will lead to more and more questions. Make it a goal to find one of these little creatures during your life.
