How much does a Siberian chipmunk weight?

It is hard to guess what a Siberian chipmunk weights. But we have the answer:

An adult Siberian chipmunk (Tamias sibiricus) on average weights 94 grams (0.21 lbs).

The Siberian chipmunk is from the family Sciuridae (genus: Tamias). When reaching adult age, they grow up to 14.8 cm (0′ 6″). On average, Siberian chipmunks can have babies 1 times per year with a litter size of 5.

As a reference: An average human weights in at 62 kg (137 lbs) and reaches an average size of 1.65m (5′ 5″). Humans spend 280 days (40 weeks) in the womb of their mother and reach around 75 years of age.

The average adult weight of a Siberian chipmunk is 94 grams (0.21 lbs)

The Siberian chipmunk or common chipmunk (Eutamias sibiricus) appears across northern Asia from central Russia to China, Korea, and Hokkaidō in northern Japan. Imported from South Korea and introduced in Europe as a pet in the 1960s, it is the only chipmunk found outside North America and is classed either as the only living member of the genus Eutamias, or as a member of a genus including all chipmunks.
