Coulee chipmunk explained
The Coulee chipmunk (Neotamias grisescens) is a species of chipmunk native to the Channeled Scablands in central Washington. It was formerly considered a subspecies of Neotamias minimus.[1] It is sympatric with both N. minimus and N. amoenus; it can be differentiated by these species due to its overall grayer coloration.[2]
