One we had that lived near our garden a few years back would start at one end of the row of sunflowers and eat it pretty much then move on. Ate less on each plant. And one groundhog we have this year living next to our driveway in a rock garden das ate a lot of weeds that grew up around a sitting car and looks just like this. Ate most of the leaves off and now I just have to pull the stalk!
