Are grey squirrels more angry than red squirrels?

Eurasian Red Squirrels live in Europe and Asia, and Grey Squirrels live in the USA. Other than that, there really is no difference between them, only their color. Addendum to above answer: Actually, it depends on which type of Red Squirrel you are referring to. There is an Eurasian Red Squirrel which is native to Europe and Asia, and there is an American Red Squirrel as well. Both the Eurasian and American Red Squirrels are smaller than Grey Squirrels with the only other differences being the difference in the color of fur and the fact that Eurasian Red Squirrels have ear tufts that neither the American Red Squirrel or the Grey Squirrel have.

What factors have contributed to decrease in red squirrel numbers?

Some factors that have contributed in the decrease if red squirrels are:- -Grey squirrels are immune to a disease called 'poxvirus' or more commonly known as 'Squirrel Pox' where as red squirrels are not and it causes the red squirrel or 'Fox Squirrel' to die out. -When grey squirrels were introduced many red squirrels were in britain, but now because the population of grey squirrel is far greater than that of the red squirrel, when the two types of squirrels compete for food, shelter etc, the grey squirrel will always come out on top - If you get what I mean :p That's about all I've got at the moment!
