A close up of a Red Squirrel in the North east of England.
A Red Squirrel in County Durham, England. These are rare in England and are struggling due to competition from the American Grey Squirrel, which was imported by the Victorians. Grey squirrels can carry squirrel pox, which is harmless to them, but fatal to Red squirrrels.
