In the UK, squirrels are classed as vermin. And it is not right.

Squirrels are NOT dirty, they are NOT un-hygenic and they are NOT doing us any harm. In fact, squirrels actually are a huge part of the environment. Squirrels help to plant oak trees. When a squirrel stores it's nuts, it often drops a few of them and that often plants oak trees and if it wasn't for them, there wouldn't be as much oxygen.

Squirrels do not do any bad, in fact, all they do is good. These defenceless little creatures deserve so much more credit than they get.

People need to realise the good that squirrels do!
