No, squirrels are not detritivores. They primarily feed on nuts, seeds, fruits, and sometimes insects, making them more accurately classified as herbivores or omnivores. Detritivores, like earthworms and certain fungi, primarily consume decomposing organic matter. Squirrels do play a role in the ecosystem by burying seeds, which can contribute to plant growth and nutrient cycling.
