Are you sure it wasn't cocktail hour and they were only shadows from birds flying over head that you thought were groundhogs because you had watched the movie Caddyshack last night? Just sayin'
Sorry not much help...
I've never saw one foaming from the mouth but you can usually tell by how there acting, groundhogs with rabies tend to walk around in circles and there constantly falling over and the big indicator is if you can walk right up to it without it running away. Nocturnal animals out in the middle of the day is also a sign of rabies, you're supposed to bury them at least 3 feet deep and poor bleach on the grave to deter other animals from digging it up. When dealing with a rabies infected animal its important to remember not to rub your eyes, more people get rabies from handling the animal and then rubbing there eyes than from being bitten.

Best way is to find their hole as they are very curious and put a long stick in it so you can tell when they are coming back up....Stand to the back of the hole and shoot them as they peek out....They will fall into the hole and no digging is involved.... 40 cal works real good on them!! Got about 15 last year this way at my place and the FIL's... Plus you can smoke a cigar while ya wait....

Exactly how these 2 were acting.

In my younger days, that's how I used to like to find women in the bar.

Woodchucks are strange critters.
We have a "burn pile" that we use, and try to set it afire once a year sometimes in 2 years depending on the accumulation of brush.
Wood chucks like to make their home there and eat my soy beans in the adjoining field.
It is not uncommon to get a dozen or two of them, in a year in conibear traps.
Well a couple of years ago, I set a live trap near the pile to get a family of fox that has been raiding my, and my neighbors chicken coops.
Well them wood chucks are curious critters and I caught 7 of them just because they walked into the live trap out of curiosity.
I would of never thought they would do that.
Never got a fox in the live trap but my neighbor was successful with his .22
Them chucks will take the profit out of a bean field in a hurry!

Wow! Great looking Mule deer!
This is a couple pictures of today's hunt in NW PA. I took the trusty sling shot and a hand full of iron ore pellets. We headed for my daughters 95 acre wood lot. Brent dropped me on the west side of the lot. We have had deer close to standers 4 different times on this same drive. I was beginning to think I had the drive set up wrong. This time was the ticket. I pushed three deer right into my friends lap.
Brent had a good steady rest for the smoke pole, and he stopped the deer at 25 yards with a soft whistle.
I was south of him about 200 yards, when I heard the 50 cal go off.
The big doe went about 50 yards and would have stayed there but Brent moved up the track and jumped her. I got there and it was not hard to find the deer about 75 yards off.
I get a kick out of getting deer moving and having someone on the other end! Its always a good day to get one of these on the ground this late in the season. We had about 1 hour in this hunt. Somedays you just get lucky!

Brent and his nice 150 lb + doe: He just got this Traditions front loader a couple weeks before Christmas. Looks like it works.


The dog in orange:


Regards,
Chris

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
