Groundhogs, also known as woodchucks, are herbivorous rodents with a diverse diet that includes a variety of plants. Their primary food sources consist of vegetation such as grasses, clover, alfalfa, and dandelions. Groundhogs are also known to consume fruits, vegetables, and garden crops, which can sometimes lead to conflicts with gardeners.

 

In the wild, groundhogs graze in open areas and meadows, foraging for grasses and herbs. They are selective eaters, preferring tender young plants over tougher vegetation. Additionally, groundhogs may feed on bark, twigs, and leaves of shrubs and trees. Their diet varies with the seasons; during the spring and summer, they focus on fresh green plants, while in the fall, they consume more fruits and vegetables to fatten up for hibernation.

 

In suburban and urban areas, groundhogs may venture into gardens and yards, targeting crops like beans, peas, and berries. Installing fencing and taking measures to make the environment less attractive can help mitigate potential conflicts.

 

Understanding what do groundhogs eat is essential for coexisting with these creatures, whether in natural habitats or residential areas. Providing alternative food sources away from gardens can help strike a balance and reduce the likelihood of groundhog-human conflicts.
