520 | |a"On the second of February each year, much of North America observes groundhog day. On that day, according to folklore, the woodchuck Marmota monax- sometimes called groundhog, or simply chuck- awakes from its long winter sleep and comes out of its den. If it sees its shadow it will go back in, and we will have another six weeks of winter. If it does not see its shadow it will remain awake and active, and we will have an early spring. This popular old legend apparently came to North America with early settlers from Europe, where it is believed in some parts that bears or badgers behave in the same manner"--p. [2]. |
