What are the living habits of flower squirrels?

Squirrels have very long ears and tails, which can adapt to life in trees; They hang upside down from the branches with claws and tails like long hooks. At dawn and evening, they also leave the trees and hunt on the ground. After finding enough food in autumn, squirrels will use tree holes or dig holes in the ground to store fruits and other foods, and at the same time block the holes with dirt or fallen leaves. Squirrels are covered with red hair in summer, and in autumn, they will change into black and gray winter hair to cover their bodies tightly. Squirrel, a family of mammals and rodents, including Squirrel Family and African Ground Squirrel Family, is characterized by its hairy tail. Animals closely related to other animals are also collectively called Dendrolimus. Squirrels are generally small and herbivorous, and their food is mainly seeds and nuts. Some species will feed on insects and vegetables, and some tropical species will migrate to prey on insects. Squirrels are native to Northeast China, Northwest China and Europe, and are distributed in other parts of the world except Oceania and Antarctica.

Squirrels are widely distributed and can be seen throughout the cold temperate forest region. In China, it is mainly distributed in the mountainous areas of three northeastern provinces, northeastern Inner Mongolia, Hebei and northwestern Shanxi, Ningxia, Gansu, Xinjiang and other provinces; Sometimes there will be more than one foreign country from the Russian Far East, Japan, North Korea and northern Mongolia and their own tree nests. Mother squirrels naturally raise their young in their nests, giving birth to three or four at a time, and generally breeding one or two a year. Red-bellied squirrels mainly feed on fruits, flowers and leaves of plants, and occasionally eat some animal food. In Taiwan Province Province, it may be due to the felling of trees in low-altitude broad-leaved forest and the large-scale afforestation of Cryptomeria fortunei in the past, and the sudden loss of habitat biodiversity led to the destruction of Cryptomeria fortunei afforestation by squirrels. Trees and bark are bitten, deformed or dead, causing great losses. Therefore, the red-bellied squirrel is called a forest pest and has attracted much attention.
