Burrowing

Burrowing animals live underground and create tunnels and burrows for shelter and protection. Some common examples include rabbits, groundhogs, moles, prairie dogs, and gophers. These animals have specialized adaptations, such as strong claws, powerful front legs, and keen senses, to navigate and survive in their underground habitats. Burrowing animals play important roles in their ecosystems by aerating soil, controlling pests, and providing food for predators. However, their burrowing activities can also damage crops, gardens, and infrastructure.
