Happy Squirrel Appreciation Day!
Squirrels are part of the taxonomic family Sciuridae, which includes small to medium sized rodents, from the usual suspects as well as chipmunks, marmots, and prairie dogs.
Squirrels are found all over the world, indigenous to all parts except Australia where they were introduced by humans. Nature's acrobats live in both trees and on the ground with different species active at all times of the day. From their complex underground burrows to their flights through the air with the greatest of ease, these mammals are certainly worth appreciating.
Collie's Squirrels (Sciurus colliaei), tree-dwelling diurnal herbivores, which are native to Mexico. SciArt by John Woodhouse Audubon for The Quadrupeds of North America, Vol. 3 (1854) by John James Audubon and John Bachman, which has been digitized and included for open access in Biodiversity Heritage Library (@biodivlibrary).
