Native red squirrels are under threat from the non-native greys.
Saving Scotland’s Red Squirrels has published its 2018 survey, which indicates that while most of Scotland’s red squirrel populations remain stable, their welfare in southern areas remains under threat.
Since 2011, Saving Scotland’s Red Squirrels has been monitoring squirrel populations in the parts of the country where red squirrels are most threatened by the spread of non-native grey squirrels.
