BABY SQUIRREL SKIN
Spreading out the limbs allows the squirrel’s skin to appear as though they are wings helping them to glide in the air cautiously. The squirrel spreads its limbs out to allow it to jump from one tree to another without any problems. One of the fun facts among the squirrels is that the flying squirrels don’t have any wings. The average length of the squirrel is 20 inches if measured from the nose tip to the tail, and though small, there are instances where they have ganged up against much larger animals. These small animals are omnivorous, which means they have a broad range of foods, including fruits, nuts, seeds, vegetables, and meat. With a bodyweight of about 1 pound, the squirrels can easily climb trees, walls, and branches. The sprinting speeds of these small animals are also commendable as they have fast speeds. They also have outstanding jumping abilities and can cover about five feet when jumping vertically and over ten feet when leaping between one object and another. The squirrels are quite good swimmers even though they do not swim very much. The exhaustive list of all the squirrel species is way above 200 the world over.

They include tree squirrels, ground squirrels, red and gray squirrels, flying squirrels, and captive squirrels. The squirrel is a small animal categorized into three different groups depending on its ecological niche, social structures, and physical characteristics.
