  • The Alaska marmot is a large ground-dwelling rodent. It has a heavy body with short neck and bushy tail, powerful legs and feet, and claws well-suited for digging. Potential concerns for the marmots include vulnerability to natural and human-caused impacts as a result of low population densities and patchy distribution. Although the overall effects are unknown, this species' alpine tundra habitat may be retreating as a result of global warming.
