Chipmunks and Squirrels

There is no known existing species of man-eating rabbit squirrels. Any reports or myths about them are likely fictional or exaggerated.

No, they cannot. The only mammal that can truly fly is the bat. Flying squirrels use special membranes which stretch between their ankles and wrists to catch air currents, thereby gliding between trees, much the way the sugar gliders do.

The cost of a pet squirrel can vary depending on the breed, age, and where you purchase it from. However, it's important to note that in many places, it is illegal to keep a squirrel as a pet without the proper permits or licenses. Additionally, caring for a squirrel can be complex and expensive due to their specific dietary and environmental needs.

Saltwater Crocodiles normally live alone although the babies may live in groups. Some male saltwater crocodiles hunt in groups to bring down very large prey like rhinos, elephants and great white sharks.

Squirrel hunting season in South Carolina typically starts in mid-September and runs through the end of February. Make sure to check the specific dates with the South Carolina Department of Natural Resources for the most accurate information.

Squirrel monkeys are native to tropical rainforests in Central and South America. They prefer hot and humid environments with dense vegetation for shelter and to access their main food source, which is fruit.

The animal squirrel is a herbivorous consumer, which means it primarily eats plants such as nuts, seeds, fruits, and vegetation. It is considered a primary consumer in the food chain as it feeds directly on plants.

Chipmunks typically sleep in underground burrows that they dig themselves. These burrows provide them with protection from predators and the elements. They line their sleeping chambers with leaves and grass for added comfort.

A squirrel drey is a nest that squirrels build in trees using leaves, twigs, and moss. It provides shelter and protection for squirrels during harsh weather conditions, such as rain or snow. The drey is usually positioned high up in the tree branches to keep the squirrels safe from predators.

A squirrel nut zipper is a type of candy made with caramel and nuts, typically peanuts or almonds, coated in chocolate. It is a sweet and crunchy treat that is popular among those who enjoy candy with a nutty flavor.

Not necessarily. A squirrel's behavior towards humans can vary based on factors such as habituation or feeling threatened. If you suspect a squirrel may be rabid, look for other signs such as unusual aggressiveness, disorientation, or signs of injury. It is best to contact animal control for assistance.

why would you need to know the sex of a squirrel?

Male squirrels tend to be prominently male (like most rodents).

No, the colobus monkey does not have a bushy tail. They have long, slender tails with a tuft of hair at the end. Squirrel monkeys, on the other hand, do have bushy tails that they use for balance while moving through trees.

Animals either eat the acorn and expel them some distance from the tree when they go to the toilet. or they are stored underground by squirrels who ultimately forget one or two, which in turn sprout and grow.

The fox squirrel has a mask on it's face. The coloring of the squirrels varies, I saw one that was a dark brown, gray tummy and dark reddish brown tail and yet another looked like a bigger dark gray squirrel with a dark raccoon mask around it's eyes.

Chipmunks belong to the family Sciuridae (rodents), while squirrels also belong to the family Sciuridae. Gerbils belong to the family Muridae (rodents).

Flying squirrels are omnivores, meaning they eat a variety of foods including nuts, seeds, fruits, insects, and sometimes small birds or eggs. While plants make up a significant portion of their diet, flying squirrels also supplement with animal sources of nutrients.

A squirrel’s tail is simply called a “tail.” These bushy appendages help squirrels with balance, communication, and heat regulation.

You can use the "Pitch Shift" effect in software like GarageBand or Audacity to make your voice sound like a chipmunk on a Mac. Simply adjust the pitch of your voice to a higher frequency to achieve the chipmunk effect.

Blue jays and squirrels often compete for nuts, such as acorns, beechnuts, and hazelnuts. Both animals rely on these types of nuts as a food source, especially during the fall and winter months when other food may be scarce.

The plural of squirrel is squirrels.

Grey squirrel numbers are increasing due to their adaptability to human-modified landscapes, lack of natural predators in some areas, and ability to outcompete native red squirrels for resources. Additionally, human activities such as urbanization and habitat fragmentation have created more suitable environments for grey squirrels to thrive.

i have a palm squirrel and its 10 years old now.... i think they survive longer if in captivity as mine is in cage and only moves around inside the house since i live in flat... so chance of him getting caught by cat birds etc...

Squirrels are mamals which implies that they do have backbones. Mamals are vertebrates, vertebra is the "fancy scientific " name for back bone.

There are approximately 6,000 red-backed squirrel monkeys in the wild. They are classified as a vulnerable species due to habitat loss, hunting, and the pet trade. Conservation efforts are in place to protect their populations.
