In August, the Changbai Mountains enter the rainy season. The humid forest becomes a playground for small animals. Among all these creatures, the Siberian chipmunk probably has the greatest vitality. It is a common species across Asia. Despite their small sizes – one can range from 18 to 25 centimeters in length – every chipmunk has its own territory ranges from 700 to 4,000 square meters and is usually larger for females than males.

Watch this cute video to see how the Siberian chipmunk enjoys its natural habitat in northeastern China's Changbai Mountains.
