1. Eastern gray squirrel

   The eastern gray squirrel (Sciurus carolinensis), also known, particularly outside of North America, as simply the grey squirrel, is a tree squirrel in the genus Sciurus. It is native to eastern North America, where it is the most prodigious and ecologically essential natural forest regenerator. Widely introduced to certain places around the world, the eastern gray squirrel in Europe, in particular, is regarded as an invasive species. In Europe, Sciurus carolinensis is included since 2016 in the list of Invasive Alien Species of Union concern (the Union list). This implies that this species cannot be imported, bred, transported, commercialized, or intentionally released into the environment in the whole of the European Union.

1. eastern gray squirrel

   The eastern gray squirrel, also known as Sciurus carolinensis, is a tree-dwelling rodent native to the eastern and midwestern United States, and to the southerly parts of the eastern provinces of Canada. They have also been introduced to certain places outside their native range, such as the United Kingdom, Ireland, and South Africa. They're recognizable by their typically gray fur and bushy tail, and their penchant for acorns, nuts, and birdseed. Eastern gray squirrels are known for their agility in climbing and jumping through trees, as well as their habit of burying food for later retrieval.

1. Eastern gray squirrel

   The eastern gray squirrel or grey squirrel is a tree squirrel in the genus Sciurus native to the eastern and midwestern United States, and to the southerly portions of the eastern provinces of Canada. The native range of the eastern gray squirrel overlaps with that of the fox squirrel, with which it is sometimes confused, although the core of the fox squirrel's range is slightly more to the west. A prolific and adaptable species, the eastern gray squirrel has been introduced to, and thrives in, several regions of the western United States. It has also been introduced to Britain, where it has spread across the country and has largely displaced the native red squirrel, Sciurus vulgaris. In Ireland, the red squirrel has been displaced in several eastern counties, though it still remains common in the south and west of the country. There are concerns that such displacement might happen in Italy and that gray squirrels might spread from Italy to other parts of mainland Europe.
