When you didn’t grab any extra snacks while in the alpine meadow, because you told yourself you need to stop snacking and now you're feeling snackish… Mood. What do marmots even snack on? Olympic marmots eat meadow flora such as avalanche and glacier lilies, heather blossoms, subalpine lupine, mountain buckwheat, harebells, sedges, and mosses. They can double their body weight in the summer (guilty) and use stored fat during a seven to eight month hibernation. Snack on, marmot friend.
