Description
Sciurus carolinensis, common name eastern gray squirrel or grey squirrel depending on region, is a tree squirrel in the genus Sciurus. It is native to eastern North America, where it is the biggest and ecologically essential natural forest regenerator.
Gray squirrels have predominantly gray fur over the top of their bodies and white or light gray fur on their bellies. Adults weigh up to 1-1/4 pounds and they are 18 to 20 inches long. Their most distinctive physical characteristic is their bushy tail, which also is a handy tool that can be used for balance, a sun shade, an umbrella, a blanket and a rudder when swimming. They have four front teeth that, like other rodents, are ever-growing, and that they wear down by constantly gnawing on wood and other materials in their environment.
South Carolina, USA.
