To find the answer to this question we take you to East Tennessee. Along the banks of the Tennessee river to the home of Woodrow Woodchuck (AKA) Big Daddy Groundhog. Tell us Mr. Big Daddy how much wood, would you chuck? ¿« £¬¥¤§’éo+ Ouch ! *^#@%& Stop that. ^&%$.... Well it seems Mr. Woodchuck doesn’t like to be asked that question. He says he doesn’t chuck wood. Well folks their you have it, the answer is none, because Mr. Woodchuck doesn’t chuck wood. Tune in next time when we will ask Ms. Prissy Hen the question “ What came first, you or the egg.”
ps: A woodchuck is NOT a beaver or squerrrel. It is a large roadent that lives in the ground. Also know as a groundhog.It does NOT eat wood!

For simplicity, let's define wood as branches that a woodchuck can "chuck" off.
So if it takes 1 minute for the woodchuck to nibble through a branch,
We would have 60 branches in 1 hour
Assuming that the woodchuck works for 1/2 a day and rested for the other 1/2 day, we are looking at,
60 branches x 12 hours = 720 branches.
So, 720 branches in a day from our "beaver" friend.

The Groundhog (Marmota monax), also known as the Woodchuck, or the Whistlepig (particularly in the Southern United States), is a rodent of the family Sciuridae, belonging to the group of large ground squirrels known as marmots. Most marmots live in rocky and mountainous areas, but the Woodchuck is a lowland creature. It is widely distributed in North America, from Alaska to Alabama and Georgia. In the west it is found only in Alaska, Alberta, British Columbia and northern Washington.
Groundhogs are typically 40 to 65 cm long (including a 15 cm tail) and weigh 2 to 4 kg. In areas with fewer natural predators and large quantities of alfalfa, they can grow to 32 inches (80 cm) and 30 lb (14 kg). They can live up to six years in the wild, and ten years in captivity.
The groundhog is one of a small number of species that have grown greatly in numbers since the arrival of European settlers in North America, since the clearing of forests provided it with much suitable habitat. It prefers open country and the edges of woodland. As a consequence, it is a familiar animal to many people in the United States and Canada.
Groundhogs are excellent burrowers, using burrows for sleeping, rearing young, and hibernating. The burrows generally have two exits, and the groundhog rarely ventures far from one of them for safety. While preferring to flee from would-be predators, the groundhog is known to viciously defend its burrow when invaded by predators such as skunks, foxes, weasels or domestic dogs. It can inflict quite a bit of damage with its two large incisors and front claws, especially when the predator is at a disadvantage inside the burrow.
In the United States and Canada, there is a Groundhog Day celebration that gives the groundhog some added popularity.

The name woodchuck has nothing etymologically to do with wood. It stems from an Algonquian name for the animal (possibly Narragansett), wuchak. The apparent relationship between the two words has led to the common tongue twister, "How much wood would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood? — A woodchuck would chuck as much wood as a woodchuck could chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood."
The Wall Street Journal quotes wildlife expert Richard Thomas as calculating that the average Groundhog moves approximately 1 m³ (35 cubic feet), or 320 kg (700 pounds), of dirt when digging a burrow.
Usually Groundhogs breed in their second year, but a small percentage may breed as yearlings. The breeding season extends from early March to middle or late April, following hibernation. A mated pair will remain in the same den throughout the 28-32 day gestation period. As birth of the young approaches in April or May, the male will leave the den. One litter is produced annually, usually containing 2-6 blind, naked and helpless young. Young groundhogs are weaned and ready to seek their own dens at five to six weeks of age.
As to your first question... it has already been asked a hundred and sixty bizillion times on here.

A woodchuck is the same as a groundhog.
We all work hard here in Vermont, especially us woodchucks. In case you're from away, I should explain that a woodchuck goes by lots of names in the United States. In Pennsylvania, I've got a cousin named Punxsutawney Phil who's called a Groundhog. Out west, my distant relations are called Prairie Dogs. Up in the plains, they're called Marmots. Weird, huh? Ya see, we tolerate all those strange names here in the Green Mountains because that's our way. It comes down from old Eatin' Allen, the First Woodchuck. Him and his buddies found out that there was a passel of groundhogs from New York who wanted to burrow in the Green Mountains. Old Eatin' and the Green Mountain Boys tolerated them right outa the state
