The ground squirrel is black-skinned with a coat of short, tough, skinless hair. The fur is cinnamon on the back while the face, belly, sides of the neck and ventral sides of the limbs are white. [4] Each side of his body has a white stripe that extends from the shoulders to the thighs. The eyes are rather large and have white stripes around them. The auricle is small. The tail is flattened at the back and bottom, covered with white hairs and two black stripes at the base. [5] Capeground's sexual dimorphism is accurate. Males typically weigh 423-649 grams (0.933-1.431 lb), an increase of 8 to 12 percent than females at444-600 grams (0.979-1.323 lbs). [6] The total length of the male groundhead squirrel is 424–476 mm (16.7–18.7 in), while that of the female is 435–446 mm (17.1–17.6 in). [4] The dental formula for a ground squirrel is
1.1.0.0
1.1.3.3
. [7] The abdominal and inguinal region of females contains two pairs of mammary glands. The glans penis of the male is large with a prominent tail. [4] This species is distinguished by its impressively large testicles, which are approximately the size of a golf ball, about 20% of the length of the head and body. [7] Moulting occurs between August and September and between March and April, once a year . [8]
