The Siberian or common chipmunk (Eutamias Sibericus) appears across Northern Asia from Central Russia to the Amur region and Japan. They are in fact the only chipmunks outside North America and have been introduced to Honshu (Japan) and Europe. Its stripes on its back are pretty narrower than the other North American chipmunks. Since they have been introduced to Europe by South Koreans in the 1960's, they were kept as pets and can live from 6 to 10 years. They are mostly absent in Russia, Hokkaido, and South Korea.
