:roll: In Europe they classify as pets, the Red squirrel is being competed away by this grey squirrel. Saw them aplenty in the Green Park next to Buckingham palace. Practically they sat on your hands.

Wikipedia Red Squirrel wrote:
In Great Britain and Ireland, numbers have decreased drastically in recent years, in part because of the introduction of the eastern grey squirrel (Sciurus carolinensis) from North America.

Yeah, the 2 above are Grey Squirrels from a park in Burnley, England. There are hundreds of them running about (getting very fat too), and they are very tame, particularly around the stately home.
