Fred la marmotte
Fred la marmotte is a Canadian groundhog located in near Percé, Quebec who predicts weather on Groundhog Day.
According to the tradition of Groundhog Day, if the groundhog sees his shadow then spring will be delayed; if he does not see his shadow, then spring will be early.
Fred is unique in being the only weather-predicting groundhog whose habitat is located on a World Heritage Site. The original Fred "Gros Fred" was used from 2010 to 2017 and again in 2019 but was replaced by his son "Petit Fred" in 2018.
