Squirrels can bury thousands of nuts each year, with estimates ranging from 1,000 to 10,000 nuts, depending on the species and local conditions. This behavior, known as caching, helps them store food for the winter and ensures they have enough resources when food is scarce. Many of the buried nuts are forgotten, leading to the growth of new trees and contributing to forest regeneration.
