Nut burier

Grey squirrel (Sciurus carolinensis)

 

A non-native species in the UK, a migrant from America, looks cute enough but they have had a disastrous impact on our native Red squirrel. The greys compete wit the reds for food and, the greys carry a virus called squirrelpox, and although harmless to the greys, it is lethal for the reds
