red squirrel

noun red squirrels

Sciurus vulgaris (Eurasian red squirrel), common in Europe and Asia. Recovery in their numbers has shown that pine martens are generally good for red squirrel populations, at least in native broadleaf woodlands, because they suppress the numbers of grey squirrels. The research, published in Proceedings of the Royal Society B, found this was not true in conifer planta
Tamiasciurus hudsonicus, the American red squirrel, found in parts of North America.
