But what if the woodchuck chucks wood to rebuild its home, which is only washed out once a year by spring snow runoff? Logically, that would mean the woodchuck would chuck wood once a year as well.
Since groundhogs (a.k.a., woodchucks - a derivative of the Algonquin name,
wuchak) are usually born in April or May to parents who were feeling frisky after their winter hibernation, the young rodent doesn't build its first home, but rather settles into an abandoned den. That means it loses a year - subtract 1. Now if the average lifespan of the groundhog is four to five years, and taking into consideration that it loses a year, the answer MUST be 3 or 4.
What unit of measurement, you ask? Irrelevant, I say! Because I'm right and you're all wrong.
Neener neener.

You know who disliked squares? THE NAZIS! You never see one of their tanks run on square wheels, do you? And do you know who was in charge of the Nazis? It was....I forget, but I think his name started with an R!
I believe his name was Reichmaster Kartoffelkopf. Legend has it, he was so versatile that he could change every part of his face at will, and all of the spare parts were kept inside a hollowed-out compartment in the vicinity of his buttcheeks. Hitler was little more than R.K.'s puppet, a fact that history has forgotten due to the sheer terror the almighty Kartoffel exuded whenever he entered a room. The mere act of writing about him sends a shiver down my spine!
