Delmarva Peninsula fox squirrel (15267238285)
Summary
Less agile than the common gray squirrel, the Delmarva fox squirrel often ambles along the forest floor
rather than leaping from branch to branch.
The animal usually avoids
confrontations by running away rather than climbing a tree but will do so to avoid a predator. The fox squirrel is also quieter than the gray
squirrel. The home range of the fox squirrel varies, but averages about 40 acres. Credit: Guy Willey
