Groundhogs, for all their mass, don’t yield that much meat. The groundhog average around 2 pounds after all the fur and organs are discarded. It should be noted that groundhogs, as well as most other small food animals such as squirrel, have scent glands that should be cut out as soon as possible to avoid tainting the meat. When dressing groundhogs, look for and carefully remove without damaging any small gray or reddish brown kernels of fat located under the forelegs, on top of the shoulder blades, along the spine in the small of the back, and around the anus.
