I see them on occasion (Georgia).
I keep meaning to look up if it's an age thing or subspecies or what
>>

If in the US or Canada, it's just a melanistic squirrel AFAIK. White with red eyes would be albino. All white without red eyes or white with patches of original color are piebald. Sometimes you also get some genetic freaks missing one of their three (?) fur colors and they look really weird. I had one local that was missing its brown hue (Eastern Grey) and it looked neat. I guess you can get melanistic, etc. Fox Squirrels too. Wonder how you can tell them apart from Eastern Greys in that case? And I've never seen a melanistic, albino, or piebald red even online now that I think of it. Wonder why Greys seem so much more likely to have those mutations?

Also there are pockets of squirrels with said mutations. Canada has a ton of black squirrels IIRC. Some cities have tons of them as well.

Nice. Squirrels are the electric guitar solos of going /out/.

I wish my stupid govt' would just come out out and declare free hunting on invasive grey squirrel

That was Kent state and it was the 60s. In the 1920s the guy who invented chiroquacky released a bunch on arsenal island between Illinois and Iowa. They quickly got off the island and have spread in every direction since.

Melaninated squirrels act like their melaninated human counterparts. They’re invasive and far more aggressive and then they attack the local squirrels and then breed them out.

Ontario anons, why are most of our squirrels black?
>>
Maryland here. Up until about 15 years ago I had only seen a couple of those in my whole life then I started seeing them all the time. But now I havent seen one in about five years.
>>
>>2773274
Quick, call the copse!
>>
>>2774015
Nah, Danish, our pretty large red squirrel population is being hit pretty hard by the greys, same with the shitty American signal crayfish threatening native crayfish
I trap them, kill them and eat em, illegal to release them once caught, free meal for me
>>
cool! haven't seen one since i moved from northern WI
>>
>>2773639
