Camera Critters - Grey Squirrel





Eastern Grey squirrel (Sciurus carolinensis)


The Eastern Grey Squirrel, is not a native British Columbian.
It was introduced in Vancouver's Stanley Park, and has spread throughout the city.
Eastern Grey squirrels can survive in a variety of habitats and this has likely assisted their successful establishment in many areas where they have been introduced.

Chriss: I do love our area squirrels. We had the Grey and Fox Squirrels and imported the Black Squirrels from Canada.
