What is a half squirrel half bird called?

Are you sure you're not talking about a flying squirrel? They don't fly, but they glide. I don't think there is such thing as a half bird, half squirrel. If there is, combine bird and squirrel. (Squird or Birrel or something)


Are there any animals besides birds that can fly?

Yes! A great many insects can fly. Bats can fly. The "flying" squirrel does not actually fly, but glides between trees. There is the "flying fish" but it does not mean it can fly. It does jump very high in the air but does not "fly."


Is there such a thing as a flying squirrel?

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.


What kind of disease which produce tumors on skin of grey and fox squirrels that is now spreading in red squirrels?

Squirrel "tumors" During the summer and fall, St. Francis Wildlife receives a lot of calls about the "those hideous-looking tumors on squirrels." The lumps (Cutaneous warbles) are bot fly larvae developing under the squirrel's skin. Adult bot flies deposit their eggs near squirrel nests. The worm-like larva enters the squirrel's mouth, nose,or other opening and winds through the body to the skin. In three to seven weeks, the larva emerges from the skin and drops to the ground. Usually, the squirrelheals quickly. Bot flies do not infest humans in Florida.


Why do birds stay in tree?

That isn't really what they are doing. It is a lazy way to watch a hunting area without all the fuss and bother of flying. If they spot a mouse or ground squirrel, they'll leave their perch and attack.
