Red squirrels have made a huge comeback in Ireland in the last number of years, due to the return of the Pine Marten.
Pine Martens’s can hunt the Grey squirrel a lot easier as it is heavier and less agile than the native red. Red squirrels can evade the Pine Marten by going onto small branches.
Is there a reason squirrels don’t live in Celtic speaking areas?

Red Squirrels are all but extinct in Canada, it seems. ~37 years ago, I cared for a baby Red Squirrel years ago after the tree they lived in was cut down and the mother abandoned them. I haven’t seen one in years now
