tyranny of the majority(Noun) A situation in which a government or other authority democratically supported by a majority of its subjects makes policies or takes actions benefiting that majority, without regard for the rights or welfare of the rest of its subjects.
Groundhogs are herbivores; almost complete vegetarians. They are most often seen sitting on their haunches grazing on grasses, leaves, flowers, clover, alfalfa, wheat, and rye. They like to raid people's gardens and eat farmer's cucumbers and melons. Occasionally, they will climb trees and eat an apple or nut.
While foraging, ground squirrels eat seeds and destroy young plants in gardens. They might also kill trees by eating the bark. In addition, burrows can dry out and kill plant roots, and the holes they dig create hazards for operating machinery, including lawn mowers.
