Juvenile chipmunk sits upright on a sunlit rock, fluff puffed out as it basks for warmth on a cool spring day.
Juvenile chipmunks don’t just bask because it’s cozy.
They’re thermoregulating: saving energy by using external heat instead of their own.
Once their buddies notice the idea... cuddlepuddles are a bonus.
