Eastern Gray Squirrel

Did You Know?

Eastern gray squirrels are like nature's little gardeners because they bury thousands of nuts and seeds and often forget where they put them, helping new trees grow, and they can even run down trees headfirst by rotating their hind paws backward to grip the bark. They also communicate with various calls and tail flicks to warn others of danger and have incisors that grow continuously, needing to gnaw to keep them filed down.
