Rats are ground dwellers and don't do what squirrels do; which is jump from tree to tree. Squirrels need the extra stability that having a fluffy tail gives them during "flight" in mid-air when they jump from branch to branch.

Squirrels are medium-sized rodents found all over the world, except in Antarctica and Australia. They have sharp claws and are excellent climbers, known for their ability to scamper up trees.
