    It’s because of grey squirrels. Not humans.

      Unfortunately, the presence of grey squirrels is completely related to human activity. They were imported to the UK as pets and then furthermore released into parks in London and across the country.

    Lovely piece of work. Actually saw your wex version first and both a pleasure to view. Here on the I.o.W there is a reasonable population with no greys but road fatalities not uncommon. Look forward to watching more of your presentations. BW.

      I believe initially they were introduced to England as pets/zoo collections and over time they became naturalised. @@maxhammer4067
