In the 1995 research, ‘The Ability of Woodchucks to Chuck Cellulose Fiber,’ researchers experimentally verified just how much wood woodchucks are capable of chucking or consuming. Their experiment claims to have involved depriving 12 adult male woodchucks of nourishment and then presenting wood as their only source of food. They also concluded that the word ‘chuck’ means ‘eat,’ as that is what 100% of the animals did. Their extremely precise conclusion is that an average woodchuck can chuck wood at a rate of 361.9237001 cubic centimeters per day, which is about 0.7979051766784 pounds.
