CatherineBabault, The Vancouver Island marmot is endemic to Vancouver Island. It is listed as an endangered species: there is about 300 marmots in the mountains.
They are coming out of hibernation this month. If you see a Vancouver Island marmot while hiking here, please report your sightings to the Vancouver Island Marmot Recovery Foundation.
Here’s a video I created about the rarest marmot in the world. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h_oYUNNBzU0
