- 'I never looked at a groundhog from this point of view before,' said Jeff Permar. Typically thought to be a nuisance, groundhogs have become the lifelong gardener's best friends. In 2019, Permar noticed his crops had large chunks bitten out of them. He purchased a motion-sensor camera to catch the perpetrator. That's when 'Chunk' stole his vegetables and his heart. 'Sure enough, this groundhog comes popping up right in front of the camera,' said Permar. 'He was so smug, he was like, yeah, I'm eating your veggies, what are you gonna do about it?' Permar uploaded the videos to social media, where they have since gone viral and spawned a worldwide audience of Chunk fans. The Instagram page for Chunk the Gr...

Jeff, not all heroes wear capes... thanks for being such a friend and savior to the Phils
Everytime i see them eat i laugh. Thank you for taking good care of them and not hurting them. You are awesome. They bring a lot of joy to the world.😊 Do a children's book and calendar.
This little groundhog family has won so many hearts! Godspeed on your journeys through life, one and all. You folks have set a fine standard of empathy here. 💖
This story is both comical and sweet. I adore ground hogs. I love Chunk and his family.💞
How Wonderful!!!! Bless you for opening your heart to the Chunks!! ❤❤❤❤❤
this is Tajs sister did he really type that
I love how they are such a sweet family ❤ I agree, the animals were here first,and I appreciate how you provide for them ❤
Laugh out loud funny. That family's got charm, looks, chutzpah.. And the humans aren't too shabby either.
More people should see it your way to the animals were here way long before we were. That's awesome that you made their own garden
The size of that carrot at 2:10! Does this guy give tips for growing vegetables?
That’s so cool. Just discovered Chunk on The Five!!! I love his growing family. The videos make me smile 😊 Thank you!
That is too cute! I'm not sure I'd be too happy loosing all my veggies though, but he's definitely cute!
I reckon “Chunk” is funny and cute. Don’t know much about Groundhogs. But they look funny when they eat. I think there’s a famous groundhog somewhere in America that can predict the weather. Maybe “Chunky” is a close relative? Yes/No? Anyway mate, Cheers from Melbourne, Australia. Good job.👍🇦🇺🤪😁☮️
I love this story way too much.
I've been following chunk for years and I love him 🎉😂❤
Love chunk, family, and friends!!!
Aw heck ! Didn't know watching animals eat on the internet was a thing. But then I realized I always enjoyed watching my animals eat, even had dreams about it long after they were gone. Yup, I guess it's a thing !
I'm officially in love with your groundhogs!! They are gorgeous ❤❤
I Love Chunk and his family I love that you take care of them! ❤
I love Chunk!
We have one or two every year. Under our shed. Love it and feed them. Never a family, had two at the same time, but wow, they fought. We could hear them fighting under the shed (oh, maybe it wasn't fighting! Haha) Anyway, we look forward to it every year here in central Pa.
Oh how cute! Chump? Is a total hunk! Too cute! So many people dislike them. And they can so some foundation damage, etc. So I heard! 🙄 I see one coming through my yard, all the time, it stays elsewhere. My neighbors see it too. Yesterday? I saw again. This time? The mama had TWO young ones. It was the cutest thing! The mama took off and they were right behind her. I love seeing them. ❤
Chunk said babe I got enough food and a big house.. family was started lol
LOVE this story!❤😊
Really enjoyed the description:"Chunk's gardener"
Got to love chunk! He is so handsome and lovable! And so glad he has a family. And so happy his provider has give him his own garden t o provide for his groundhog family

Had no idea you were so close I grew up in West chester pa. LOVE chunk
Chunk and Nibbles are beyond adorable! They remind me of the muskrats in the "Muskrat Love" song!
Thank y'all for sharing Chunk and Nibbles, God bless y'all!

You are awesome.
I love Chunk and family!!!❤❤❤
Chunk has Mrs Chunk and little Chunks ❤ All because of his unwavering determination to reduce your vegetable yield.
Such a loving attitude ❤
That little bastard knows what he's doing😅😂
I was here at the beginning when it was just Chunk, munching away; then we didn't know who Nibbles was - until we realized that Nibbles was a girl, and then - babies!!
I love chuck, what a cutie!
Way to go, Chunk!!!
You’ll be able to shop at whole foods with the money he makes you 😁
That Girl is absolutely Funny...
i just turned vegan and this groundhog is inspiring me to eat more vegetables and fruits ❤

❤❤❤❤
Priceless❤
CUTE!!!!!
What a ham this groundhog is!
Respect
❤😊
My thought was they are cute until the foundation of your house begins to sink as their underground network expands. A friend of mine pumped 11 yards flowable fill concrete under a house to stop a house from sinking because of ground hogs. He said: They will dig out a foundation. And be adorable as they do 🫣
Don't be a buzz kill...they live under the shed. Go Chunk!!
Ten generations from now?
Munch on bRodey!
Oh right, Delaware, that's why you're wearing a covid mask outside...gotcha dude.
Don't get it. He is sitting out side on wearing a mask 😂
The date of the video is Feb 13, 2021. Almost, a year into the pandemic. At that time? There was so much uncertainty, misinformation, etc. I myself and many were wearing them outside too. Because the WHO was saying, if we walked past someone that sneezed, or had just sneezed, and we came by through there? That it would still be in the air and we could get covid. It was crazy times. Many just weren't sure, so they erred to caution. Thank God we're past that.
It’s during the pandemic, and perhaps there were other people there who weren’t on camera?
@richardwozniak3238 I was thinking the same thing...common sense had definitely left the building!!🙄
@@MymusicW630 I understand your premise, and yes, they were crazy times. Unfortunately, what the pandemic exposed, among many things, was a complete lack of critical thinking skills among a significant portion of the population. Those that were skeptical of these highly questionable "preventative measures", were either mocked and ridiculed, or fired...like you said, thank God we're past that. On a positive note, the story of Chunk is pretty cool.
I love Chunk!
