Whether it can be categorized as "mourning" or not, I do not know. But when you capture a squirrel in a cage, it communicates to other squirrels and other squirrels to it through high frequency sounds that are usually outside the range of human hearing. However, at times the frequency they use is just within our range of hearing and you can hear the high pitched squeals going back and forth between them. Once you hear the sound of these squeals, you will have no doubt they are communicating trouble, fear, and some sort of emotional concern, worry, or sense of helplessness or sadness.
A male squirrel can have up to three mates at a time. While females usually only have one.
That does not happen, because they are two different species. Furthermore, flying squirrels are nocturnal, and rarely come across other squirrels.
I have observed this kind of behavior in fox squirrels on a number of occasions. I have seen squirrels dragging the dead body of another squirrel to the side of the road. The squirrel then remained with the body for some time nudging it, lying next to it and attempting to engage it in play. I have seen Squirrels defend the dead body of another squirrel against other animals and even charge me if I approached.
