The European red squirrel has several adaptations that aid its survival, including its bushy tail, which helps with balance and navigation through trees, and serves as a parachute to slow falls. Its sharp claws allow for efficient climbing, while its keen sense of smell helps locate food, primarily nuts and seeds. Additionally, the red squirrel's fur changes with the seasons, providing camouflage against predators in varying environments. These adaptations enhance its ability to thrive in forest habitats across Europe.
