Golden Squirrels
Golden squirrels, like the Malabar Giant Squirrel (Ratufa indica), are admired for their shimmering golden-brown fur that seems to glow in the sunlight. Found in the forests of India, these squirrels have a regal appearance that has earned them nicknames like “jewel of the forest.” Their fur coloration ranges from rich gold to dark chestnut, offering excellent camouflage among tree bark and foliage.
These squirrels are arboreal specialists, rarely descending to the ground. They are known for their extraordinary leaps between trees, often spanning distances of over 20 feet. Golden squirrels play a critical ecological role as seed dispersers, contributing to the regeneration of their forest habitats. Their beauty and ecological importance make them a treasured species in their native ranges.
