Chipmunk Chronicles

After doing some research we have made some important decisions regarding the Chipmunk Relocation Program (CRP). The first was to, of course, come up with that nifty acronym. (Logos and marketing materials are with our design group now)

Relocation Site Selection
Research has been done to select a desirable Relocation Site for any chipmunks brought into the Program. The site had to meet certain criteria:

- adequate food supply
- available water
- compatible fauna
- 5 mile distance from site of origin

We think we have come up with the perfect location, where added features also include – a walking/biking trail and close proximity to back roads. Because as you know, chipmunks derive great joy from running in front of fast moving objects. We think it may actually be a competitive sport.
The new site is actually a tad under 5 miles. So we are planning a ‘Test Phase’ which may include marking and tracking the first chipmunks to participant in the CRP.

Next on our agenda, and to be discussed at our next regularly scheduled meeting, will be Retrieval Locations and Incentives.
