Abstract

In the UK the now widespread non-native grey squirrel produces problems for the forestry industry through damage from bark stripping and threatens the survival of native species most notably the red squirrel which, mainly as a result of resource competition and transmission of infection, has suffered dramatic declines. Reducing grey squirrel numbers is essential to decrease this species’ ecological and environmental impact.
