squirrel

Have we, in the UK, ever been invaded by America (apart from a spot of jokey »over paid, over sexed and over here« in World War II)? But think again – our natural landscape was ravaged (and still is) when the aggressive grey American squirrel took over all but a few of the remotest forest tracts in Scotland from our much more attractive – but alas timid and into conflict avoidance – red squirrel!
