The groundhog (Marmota monax) is a large rodent indigenous to North America, and its population is not restricted to a single city and state. If the question is really about a particular groundhog honored on Groundhog Day, which is a celebration held in the United States and Canada on February 2nd each year, then the groundhog in question is one known as "Punxsutawney Phil." He is thus named for the city where one of the largest celebrations of Groundhog Day takes place in the United Staes: Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania. In Canada, the famed groundhog is "Wiarton Willie," so named for Wiarton, Ontario.
According to folklore, if a groundhog emerging from its burrow on this day fails to see its shadow, it will leave the burrow, signifying that winter will soon end.

The movie ''Groundhog Day'' was called in Canada ''Le jour de la marmotte'' so I imagine that's how they call it in French. FYI: Since Groundhog Day is a North American tradition, in France the movie ''Groundhog Day'' was called ''Un jour sans fin'' (A day with no end)
