Squirrels are small to medium-sized rodents belonging to the Sciuridae family, with over 200 species distributed across the world. Found in forests, parks, and even urban areas, squirrels are known for their agility, bushy tails, and sharp claws, which help them climb trees effortlessly.
Squirrels are primarily herbivorous, feeding on nuts, seeds, fruits, and sometimes fungi. They play a vital role in forest ecosystems by dispersing seeds, contributing to tree growth. Their cheeky behavior and habit of burying food make them both fascinating and amusing to watch.
