The history of the grey squirrel

The Grey Squirrel



Grey squirrels were introduced on purpose. To the united kingdom to make it more interesting in the parks. Now they have caused serious problems like giving other native animals diseases. Also they strip bark off native trees. They also breed extremely fast. They are able to digest acorns and red squirrels can’t. People are trying to lower the population of Grey squirrels by baiting them and shooting them with rifles. Some people stuff grey squirrels. Other people just kill them for food. The grey squirrels attack red squirrels. They naturally came from north America. It is a invasive specie.
