jenniflower Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 Why are red squirrels so much better than grey ones? Is this just some form of animal racism? Discuss Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mojo1 Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 Because the grey squirrel alledgedly forced the red squirrel out of it's natural habitat and led to its dwindling population. In fact they prefer very different habitats and it's deforestation that has all but wiped out the red not its cute little grey cousin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mixwicks Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 I have to admit finding grey squirrels really cute and adorable even though I'm well aware of the problems they cause. I've never seen a red squirrel I think you only get them in Scotland now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
