En hiver lorsque la neige tombe les marmottes se retirent dans leurs terriers et de mise en veille prolongée. Selon certains auteur- la Fédération de marmottes réside dans la fourniture de nourriture avant le début de l'hiver, mais d'autres affirment qu'ils ne sont pas connus pour jeter dans n'importe quel magasin d'aliments avant leur retraite, et que leur sommeil est probablement sans interruption dès qu'ils commencent à hiberner en octobre jusqu'à leur sortie au printemps.

. The fur traders and fur bearing animals. Fur trade; Fur-bearing animals. 308 EODENTIA. In the winter when the snow comes the Marmots retire to their burrows and hibernate. According to some author- ities the Russian Marmots lay in a supply of food before the winter begins, but others claim that they are not known to lay in any store of food before their retirement, and that their sleep is probably unbroken from the time they begin to hibernate in October until they come out in the spring. If either of these statements are accepted as true, the Russian Marmot differs in, this respect from the Ameri- can Woodchuck, whi 2h causes so much trouble by coming out of its hole on Candlemas Day to look for its shadow, no matter how much snow there may be on the ground. Marmots are all terrestial and fossorial, and some of the habits that the Russian Marmot is said to have in common with the North American Prairie Dog are sitting on its haunches, whistling, etc. The Russian Marmot is about the size of a rabbit and has a greyish yellow fur that is browner on the head than on the body, and darker at the roots than at the tips. It feeds on roots, leaves and insects, and is very prolific, often producing nine young in a litter. It can be domesticated, and taught to feed on carrots, cabbages and other vegetables.. Russian Maemot The skins are used for a great variety of purposes, either in their natural state or dyed, but they are principally consumed in the manufacture of linings for coats; when they are dyed brown and striped they are sometimes called "Florida Mink" and "Mink Marmot"; and they are also marked so as to make a good imitation of the leopard..
