I do not think any of that green West of the river is accurate. Only ones I have ever seen have been in Natchez.


I have plenty in upper middle Tn.

Grandson’s took multiple pics of very tame chipmunks on hikes in Oregon,and Washington.

Here's a distribution map from a book published in 1974. We see them from time to time near Centreville, Ms.

From my 30 something years in the Baton Rouge area I’ve never seen one in BR. Go north to Central/Zachary and further and they are common. Baton Rouge seems to be the southern boundary of the range.

Also never seen them west of the Mississippi River or east of Baton Rouge.

I never saw the things either after hunting in PC/Avoyelles woods since I was little

Went to Tunica Hills trail and the things were everywhere, I was wondering why there were wild striped gerbils running around the trail

Too many snakes for chipmunk populations to take off down there.
