And why not a marmot ??

It's a nice beautifull little animal, and, according to WP,
"Marmots typically live in burrows, and hibernate there through the winter. 
Most marmots are highly social, and use loud whistles to communicate with one 
another, especially when alarmed."

And, the most important, it is sleeping half of the time  ! :-P
