The US has the https://www.nps.gov/band/learn/nature/aberts-squirrel.htm which has similar ears.
Never seen that one either!
Beautiful little redhead.
Cute redhead eating nuts
Non-polish squirrels have gay ears.
Straight squirrels have polish ears
TIL some folk have never seen a European Red Squirrel and think they’re Polish
I mean, Poland IS in Europe so I’m afraid this title is pedantically correct.
I got this off Bluesky. No, squirrels in North America are mostly grey or black, and the red ones we do have in woodsy areas definitely don’t have these ears.
Swede here, this looks just like a normal squirrel we have here
They’re very different in North America.
Yes they’re correcting you because you said it was polish
Well that’s what the guy on Bluesky said lol.
Honestly never heard of Blue sky, are you going to tell us it’s a YT Channel ?
No it’s a social media app, a Twitter clone made by Jack Dorsey formerly of Twitter before old shit face bought it. It’s ok.
It’s a European red squirrel mate, I promise. The biggest population I’ve seen is on King Charlie’s Balmoral estate in Scotland
Yep they’re also all over the place in France
Red squirrels that live in poland are polish. The species name can be whatever, if it eats and sleeps in poland wilds its gonna be polish
I’m not sure, I think we need to see It’s papers…
Calm down Adolf
Papers please
You can tell cos they speak Polish.
It was the Lonsdale slip ons that made me realise it was Polish.
These are all over Europe
If this squirell is this friendly and trusts people this much you must be in the Park Łazienkowski in Warsaw.
My pappaw would probably say it’s so their head doesn’t get stuck in the pickle jar or something. Classic Pappaw.
All the better for gerkin jerkin’
