It's Squirrel Appreciation Day! It’s a day to honor and learn about these quirky, bushy-tailed rodents, who scurry around cities, parks, forests, and suburbs. There are over 200 species of squirrel in the family Sciuridae and they live all over the world—except Australia and Antarctica. They are categorized into three main types: ground squirrels, flying squirrels, and tree squirrels. They range in size from the minuscule, 7 cm long African pygmy squirrel to the Indian giant squirrel, which can grow to 36 cm long! {Spotted in France by Dr-Harsha Vardhan Reddy} #JungleDragon #Sciuridae #SquirrelAppreciationDay #Squirrel Posted 5 years ago
