Eastern Grey Squirrel

Sciurus carolinensis

Description:

Squirrels can turn their back feet around so they can grip onto a tree as they run down it headfirst. When being watched by an animal that may steal their food they will pretend to bury it to fool the potential thief and then hide the food somewhere else.
