Grey Squirrel Life Cycle

Lol I will go and have gone anywhere I like. F the lockdown. And these dudes are fine with me. I’m not part of this stupid “grey squirrels” are hurting our native squirrels because we are here for the ride people, not to try and preserve one animal over the other because they are here for the ride also. All of this controlling megalomaniac bull needs to come to an end. We can’t control what wasn’t in our hands in the first place, like weather. We are here for the ride people, don’t like it just get off.

Garbage.

Cute, controversial and invasive, sounds like some humans to me. Its a great shame people can't educate themselves to the facts. But you can't teach idiots.

You forgot to mention, if they live long enough, most squirrels will become mostly grey.

They bread twice per year, the babies born in Fall will stay with their mom through the winter and the tree chasing is often times the mom and babies. ❤️❤️❤️ They make wonderful domestic house pets, if you love and cuddle them enough, they potty train nicely after the first 6 months of love and nurture, are very obedient to house rules. They are amazing actually and I wish more people could understand how much like domestic house cats they are.

Love your video, thank you.

You forgot to mention that they are one of the most delicious small game!

I love those kute buggers. But you got red ones 😍

You need some fiest squirrel dogs much like your terriers but they running the squirrel up trees and bark till you shoot it

Nice video! I'm from North Carolina, USA and eastern gray squirrel is actually the state mammal , but illegal to be kept as a pet. They are very smart adorable creatures but can be real neusence too. Actually it's not uncommon for people to eat them in the States believe it or not.

Thats a CHONK in the thumbnail

Achingly cute, highly intelligent, endearingly cheeky and endlessly entertaining. I know it's not PC to say this but I prefer the greys as they seem to be much more human friendly. Hand-feeding them is great fun. I know the reds must be protected and re-introduced in some ares but this doesn't mean the greys should be totally exterminated as some people suggest. If you go back far enough, most of our domesticated animals, flowers, fruit, all horses etc. were introduced from outside the U.K.

I have a pet gray squirrel named Willard . . . I love him, he plays with my cats and his favorite food is banana.
Great video mate !

Stay safe? What, from squirrels??

You'll find the gray squirrel is very smart and less destructive than a house cat. Every time a house cat is allowed to just wander around outside on its own for hours on end it is stalking and killing songbirds and squirrels. That cat doesn't care which color the squirrel is. It just wants to kill any animal that is smaller than it is. I've watched cats run down the sewers at night as I pull into my neighborhood. The same cats are then let back in the house and people cuddle them, let them walk on their kitchen countertops, and let them in their beds after they just ran all through the sewers.
People are oblivious about their cats. Thinking it's okay for their cat to go through other people's flower beds and yards. Killing anything moving.

WHAT PANDEMIC?

Greys are causing havoc to the UK ecosystem. The damage they do to our woodlands alone is extremely alarming and that’s before we get onto songbird and egg predation and the squirrel pox.

Grey lives matter! My little pipin is part of our family and she’s a great housemate if not a little demanding,I’m in the uk and rescued her whilst at work and now she’s no longer a pinky but a fantastic bushy tailed squirrel that owns the house

You failed to mention that grey squirrels also eat birds eggs & chicks. They will also build a nest on top of a birds nest that has been freshly made by a bird & in turn oust the bird so the poor bird has lost it's nest site, which brings on the further decline of song birds. I prefer to shoot them rather watch them ☠️

Constant pressure year on year with a growing population will only have one result.
Grey squirrels eat song-bird chicks and eggs. Research carried out by the Game Conservancy and Wildlife Trust demonstrates that grey squirrels have an adverse impact on many native woodland birds, reducing fledging rates by an average of 15%.

So..... What's their Life Expectancy?

You couldn't go outside cause of a pandemic 😂😂😂😂😂

Just like humans its had to exterminate us

Diversity is your strength. Let the greys mix with the reds, bigots

Tree rats

lol. Squirrels and SHEEPLE😀

Where I live, these guys are the native squirrels. They're cool little guys.

But I hate when I'm driving in my neighborhood, and one decides to cross the street, only see me coming and stop, only to go back in the other direction last minute, causing me slam my brakes because I don't wanna hit them lol

i mHAVE NEVER SEEN SQUIRELL BAWLS BEFORE SO 5*

Brits complaining about a destructive invasive species, that’s funny

I have four young gray squirrels in my yard that were born in a large bird box we call the "squirrel mansion." It's fun to see them wrestling each other and running over when I give them snacks. <3

I ought to hate grey squirrels. They nested in the wall alongside my bed when I was a very unhappy teen. I heard whispering (they talk in their sleep, it seems) and even found leaves on the floor. I truly thought I was going mad.

Thank you

How long is their lifespan ????
