14 Red squirrel densities are lower (0.3-1.0 squirrel per hectare [ha]) than gray squirrels in broadleaf woods (2-8 squirrels/ha) but tend to be similar in conifer woods (0.03-1.3 squirrels/ha) (1 ha = 2.47 acres). Aggressive encounters within species are rare but may result in bites...
Red Foxes in New York State The New York Department of Environmental Conservation (NYS DEC) notes that red foxes are especially susceptible to mange, which causes hair loss among other symptoms. While this fox appears to have lost most of the hair on its tail, it's unclear whether it is ...

This study had the aim of investigating the anatomy of the aortic arch in squirrels (Sciurus vulgaris). Ten squirrels were studied. The materials were carefully dissected and the arterial patterns of arteries originating from the aortic arch were examined. The brachiocephalic trunk and the left sub...

(detection) rates as a noninvasive alternative to live trapping for estimating population densities of snowshoe hares (Lepus americanus (Erxleben, 1777)) and red squirrels (Tamiasciurus hudsonicus (Erxleben, 1777))—two common small (≤1.5 kg) mammal species in the boreal forests of northern ...
She relishes pomegranates, so much that she’s deprived the squirrels of fodder. Our blackberry harvest is down by 80%, because she plucks the berries straight from the vines. She is the most punctual, time-sensitive dog, set in her ways. She likes to sleep late, not deigning to get...
My garden is mostly quite untidy and always one step away from total chaos, but it provides food and shelter for a lot of species, from ladybirds and fireflies to hornets (a bit scary but very peaceful); from slow-worms to grass snakes, squirrels, martens, foxes, lots of birds- ...
There were no moose and no polar bears (except where we expected them to be but no wild polar bears) – we didn’t even see any squirrels. No northern lights and no view of the Milky Way. And there were bugs and a lot of rain. But we had fun anyway. We spent a lot of time ...
