The first Marmot Day in Alaska history was February 2, 2010. Join Howard Carbone and Charlie Loeb as they attempt to find a fun way to celebrate this new holiday and learn much about marmots in the process.

Hey great Nugget on the marmot and Alaska’s first Marmot Day celebration! But where is the photo of the little “whistle pig” so we really know what the heck he looks like?
Thanks for having that marmot forecast the weather for this summer, too — very helpful!
