A ground squirrel is a squirrel that digs holes by trees to live in, and occasionally climbs trees to get around. Ground squirrels are mainly grey and stay on the ground, hence the name of this type of squirrel.

A ground squirrel is a type of squirrel that lives primarily on the ground rather than in trees. They are small rodents found in North and Central America, Europe, and Asia, and they are known for their burrowing habits. Ground squirrels are herbivores and feed on seeds, nuts, and plants.

Ground squirrels eat seeds, fruit, nuts, and grains. They are mainly herbivores, but will occasionally eat insects. They live mostly off of nuts in the winter time.
