The pack of mutant black squirrels that are giving Britain's grey population a taste of their own medicine | the Daily Mail

Quote:

For years, the grey squirrel held sway - driving its red cousin into the remotest corners of the country.

But now the black squirrel has arrived - and is rampaging through parks and woodlands.

Scientists say the testosterone-charged black is fitter, faster and more fiercely competitive than both reds or greys.

Interesting about the United Kingdom's squirrels. But they are so cute.

When I'd read the same article yesterday, it mentioned that the black squirrel went after dogs. That information was removed. Have no fear . . . BBC reports:

BBC NEWS | Europe | Russian squirrel pack 'kills dog'

A "big" stray dog was nosing about the trees and barking at squirrels hiding in branches overhead when a number of them suddenly descended and attacked, reports say.

"They literally gutted the dog," local journalist Anastasia Trubitsina told Komsomolskaya Pravda newspaper.

"When they saw the men, they scattered in different directions, taking pieces of their kill away with them."

Interesting, I never seen black squirrels before, but I've l have seen tons of grey squirrels of course. I never seen red squirrel either, I guess it's native in UK.

The squirrels are cute, I do miss seeing them.

I do remember the Canadian Squirrels are smaller than American Squirrels. The squirrels in Illinois State were bigger (can't tell for other states as haven't seen squirrels).

Aww all squirrels are cute, doesn't matter what colours they are. In Bali, they have brown squirrels there. They come up to our balcony and take a bit of food out of my hand.

SxyPorkie, that could be chipmunks you've seen cos chipmunks have stripe on them.
