AI interpretation: Eurasian red squirrel head.
Overview
Eurasian red squirrels vary from reddish to very dark coats, usually with pale underparts. Ear tufts become longer in winter, and the tail is long and furry.
The 1999 account describes deciduous and coniferous forests across Europe and northern Asia. Squirrels forage in trees and on the ground, eating seeds, nuts and other foods. They hide food in caches and use tree cavities or other nests; mothers nurse the young.
