Birch the Woodchuck

Birch the Woodchuck is an anthropomorphic dark brown tall shaggy woodchuck who resides in the Meadow. He appears to have no ears, a paddle like tail, he is very tall, has lines for eyes, hash blushes, long thin eyebrows, and squashy paws. His full name is Birchwood the Woodchuck.

Biography
Birch is a jolly, carefree, and friendly woodchuck man who acts like a good adult role model for his younger angsty friends. He can be quite loud at times when he is excited, and he is easily considered a confident character. Although he normally handles problems in a mature fashion, if he is under stress, he will snap. (See trivia)

Birch is also quite scatterbrained and tends to forget what he's doing when he's excited. He is very protective of those he cares about and loves the company of his friends and family.

A more serious side of Birch was shown in Episode 12, where he handles his parents' splitting up in a mature and quiet fashion. He also cared for Pine when she was upset about it, and told his mother that she should be honest with Pine instead of hiding the issue from her.



Trivia
Examples of his stress getting the better of him:

- He once got angry at The Neko for insulting the culture of the Meadow Dwellers. Since Rock Chick later on stated that the peaceful lifestyle of the Meadow helps the Dwellers cope with stress (and The Neko was disrupting with her loud rap/dubstep music), it can be assumed that he wasn't as emotionally balanced as usual.

- He gets angry at Brofist the Bat, though this is well jusitified, since he was bullying and attacking his friends (in front of a child, at that)

Birch has a feminine side and loves flower crowns.

Alima claims he's scary when he's mad.

Birch is quite skilled at starting fires for his and Alima's food.
