Squirrels are primarily herbivores and occupy a mid-level position in the food chain. They primarily feed on nuts, seeds, fruits, and occasionally insects, making them important seed dispersers in their ecosystems. As prey, they are consumed by various predators, including Birds of Prey, snakes, and mammals like foxes and coyotes, which places them below these predators in the food chain. Overall, squirrels play a crucial role in both the plant community and as a food source for higher trophic levels.
