This podcast discusses the habitat and nest selection of Eurasian red squirrels in suburban parks in Wrocław, Poland.
The study found that red squirrels mainly live in broad-leaved forests, preferring oak-dominated tree species, and nests are usually built in treetops at a height of between 12 and 18 meters, which is considered an anti-predator adaptation strategy.
The study also showed that the distribution of nests is not random, and some individuals will build multiple nests. The results of this study have important implications for the conservation of red squirrels and urban ecology research.
