Squirrels play a vital role in their ecosystems by aiding in seed dispersal. As they gather and store nuts and seeds for the winter, they often forget some of their caches, which can lead to new plant growth. This behavior promotes forest regeneration and biodiversity. Additionally, their activities can help aerate the soil, further benefiting plant health.
