this is what a woodchuck looks like, which is weird because i always thought it was a bird.

take a look at the arms, they're very short which is going to have an effect on the amount of wood it can chuck. the problem is that with limited muscle leverage and follow through it won't be able to chuck the wood very far. therefore after a certain amount of time a pile of wood will grow in front of it preventing it from throwing anymore wood in that direction. it can now turn a little and carry on throwing wood in a new direction, say... 15 degrees to the left, to form a new pile and keep on in this manner until it is completely surrounded by wood. at this point it will have to stop chucking wood because it will have run out of places to chuck it to. of course, if there is a way of lifting the woodchuck out of its chucked wood it may be able to carry on chucking wood for some time from a new spot. but i would guess that by now the woodchuck would be tired, bored and more than a little grumpy - definitely not the ideal state of mind for effective wood chucking.

you can see that this particular woodchuck has completely f.ucked it up by attempting to throw too large a piece at first having already scattered a few timbers around in a disorganised manner. it now has nowhere to go.

What are the wind conditions Peewee? Is there a head wing or a forewind? Or god forbid a cross wind which completely flumoxes the average woodchuck...  ???

Hold on !
How big exactly is that woodchuck ,it looks to me as though it's resting on a match stick . If thats the case it makes the original question immaterial as the woodchuck instead of chucking wood clearly prefers to set fire to entire tracts of virgin forest , cremating in the process not only it's fellow forest dwellers but also picnickers, hikers , forest rangers and film crews from the national geographic channel. Surely the question should be "Woodchucks are they Dangerous ? "

The name wood chuck does not mean chuck as in throw that is merely British slang.

To chuck comes from the Native American (i forget the precise tribe) expression chuk which means to carve but to carve in a childlike way i.e. not very good.  So the woodchuck actually chuks its way through a lot of wood in a single day especially if you consider the amount of wood to body size ratio.

It is a relentless chuker of wood so the question how much wood can a woodchuck chuck is How much wood have you got as this little blighter will not stop.

Also whats the time span and quality of chuking

In fact theres to many variables for the answer to be precisely correct at all as you have
Time
Size of the woodchuck
Wood available
quality of the chuk
Was it correctly chuked to start with

But in the spirit of the thread Ill go for 28.94527

so taff, are you saying that the question should be:

how much wood would a woodchuck carve but carve in a childlike way if a woodchuck could carve wood but in a childlike way?
