Can you say "L" for Lemming. Lemmings look like fat furry hamsters. They have strong legs and claws for digging. Thick fur helps to keep them warm. There are collared lemmings and brown lemmings. Collared lemmings' coats turn from brown to white for the winter. They  live in the treeless areas of Northern Canada. In the winter they live in burrows in the snow. They make many snow tunnels. They are safe from the cold and wind. Their underground burrows have rest areas, bathrooms and nesting rooms. Lemmings make nests out of grasses, feathers and musk ox wool. Their diet consists of plants, roots, berries and lichens. They gather seeds to eat in the wintertime.  The weasel, Arctic fox , Snowy Owl, wolf and wolverine are just some of lemmings enemies. Interesting fact: The Snowy Owl determines how many of young it will have depending on whether there are many of lemmings or not.
