PHOTO STORY: Can a muskrat predict the weather?
March 30, 2013
A muskrat swims along an irrigation ditch near the town of Eaton recently. Muskrats are found in most of Canada and the United States and a small part of northern Mexico. American Indians have long considered the muskrat to be an important animal. Some predict winter snowfall levels by observing the size and timing of muskrat lodge construction. After a spell of cold weather, today will be mostly sunny with a high of 51 degrees.
