In most squirrel species, both male and female squirrels can build nests, but it is typically the female that takes on this responsibility, especially when preparing for the breeding season and raising young. Female squirrels construct nests, called dreys, using leaves, twigs, and other materials to create a safe environment for their offspring. Males may assist in gathering materials but are generally less involved in the nesting process.
