Red Squirrel Explored

The red squirrel or Eurasian red squirrel (Sciurus vulgaris) is a species of tree squirrel in the genus Sciurus common throughout Eurasia. The red squirrel is an arboreal, primarily herbivorous rodent.

 

In Great Britain, Ireland, and in Italy numbers have decreased drastically in recent years.[citation needed] This decline is associated with the introduction by humans of the eastern grey squirrel (Sciurus carolinensis) from North America.
