a squirrels behavior...
Begs for food like a homeless guy.
Only flying squirrels are nocturnal. All other types of squirrels are active during the early morning and early afternoon, this type of behavior is called crepuscular (as opposed to diurnal = active mostly during the day, and nocturnal= active mostly at night )
I have observed this kind of behavior in fox squirrels on a number of occasions. I have seen squirrels dragging the dead body of another squirrel to the side of the road. The squirrel then remained with the body for some time nudging it, lying next to it and attempting to engage it in play. I have seen Squirrels defend the dead body of another squirrel against other animals and even charge me if I approached.
Some inherited behaviors of the squirrel are climbing trees, building nests in trees, and gathering acorns. They also inherited the instinct to hide the acorns after finding them.
No. Where the grey and red squirrels intermingle, the red squirrels tend to be pushed out by the larger greys.
Chipmunks and ground squirrels have cheek pouches, grey and fox squirrels do not. Squirrels who live in trees don't have cheek pouches.

It's called "heat dumping" and it's a behavior that squirrels do to cool down their bodies when they are too hot.
