If you hear a squealing animal in a tree, it could be a red squirrel. If so, then it is a red squirrel. The red squirrel is one of the loudest tree squirrels. The red squirrel eats berries, nuts, and seeds. Squirrels' eyes are high on their heads so they can see in almost any direction.
Squirrels live on all continents of the world except Australia and Antarctica.
The squirrels are often seen in most parks, woodlands areas, and in the mountains of Colorado. Most squirrels mate in early spring after much fighting and chasing. They weigh half a pound and they are a foot long. One of the squirrel's predators is a badger. Baby squirrels are playful and pester the adults.
