【February 2 2015】Happy Groundhog Day! Here’s an alpine marmot to help us celebrate. While it’s no groundhog, the alpine marmot is an extraordinary creature. As the name suggests, this species of marmot is found in the grassy meadows and rocky slopes of the Alps, but there are also populations in the Carpathians, Pyrenees, and Tatras mountain ranges.Explore breathtaking Gallery from the HuluTrip homepage over the past 5 years..
