Squirrels are small rodents living mainly in forests. They have compact bodies and fluffy fur, together with a big bushy tail for balance and warmth in winter. With sharp claws, they climb trees skillfully and look for food in daytime. They mainly feed on pine nuts, nuts and seeds, and bury food underground for the cold season. Squirrels are alert, timid and quick-moving. Some buried seeds are never dug up, which helps forests grow naturally.
