European marmot, April 2014

In one of the outdoor cages attached to the old monkey house. I was very glad to see these.

Never seen a marmot myself; the Alpine and Woodchuck at Zoo Berlin were still in offshow-hibernation when I visited.
 
...I've seen them in a rocky 'pit' at the base of the sheep and goat mountain at the Zoo; they're directly in front of you when you enter through the Lion Gate.

Correct - there are three in total; one is labelled for woodchuck and two for alpine marmot.

I often have to struggle to prevent running Yellow-bellied Marmots over in my car! :D The only other marmot species I have seen was a wild Woodchuck on the grounds of the Kansas City Zoo.
