Camp Chipmunk/Tigermunks

The Camp Chipmunks are powerful creatures from Lumberjack Folklore. They were once normal sized chipmunks but grew massive after eating countless prune pits left behind by the camp cooks of Paul Bunyan. They have been known to lift their tails and scream into the moonlight. Despite their strength and ferocity, they are thought to be cowards at heart. They became so strong that they killed all the bears and mountain lions in the area, until they were hunted down and killed by Paul Bunyan and his men.
