Jennifer Tomodachi posted on our Facebook page that she saw this white-tailed squirrel near the corner of Church and 3rd Street. She asked if anybody knew anything about this type of squirrel, because she’d never seen one like it before.
We asked our wildlife expert, Ranger Steve Mueller, and he said he thought it was probably just a genetic variation.
We did a Google search, and saw that there are white-tailed squirrels seen in other states, from time to time. Has anyone else out there seen a white-tailed squirrel? Where? Let us know, by emailing us at news@cedarspringspost.com.
We have seen a squirrel with a white tail in our back yard two times in the last week. We live near waynesville ohio.
