    Dogs are good at digging burrows, and usually caves have more than two entrances for safety. Most of them are active during the day, like to live in groups, good at digging soil, digging tunnels up to several meters deep, and there are grassy living rooms inside, which is very comfortable. They do not store food, but instead store fat in the summer so that they can hibernate in the burrows in the winter.

    Groundhogs are not voles. One of the differences from other rodents is that marmots have large burrows and traces of marmots' common paths outside the burrows.

    Prairie dogs will dig holes in the ground to make a home of their own. Living in the savannahs of North America, where weather changes dramatically throughout the four seasons, their burrows need to withstand temperature changes, floods, and wildfires. Groundhogs dig holes at different depths in the ground, and each hole serves a different purpose, such as a baby room.

    The nursery is located deep underground, making the temperature more stable and giving the baby marmots better protection from ferocious predators. Caves closer to the ground act as shelters to help adult marmots hide from predators. Other caves are used to store food or to listen to predators.
