Abstract (summary)

I’m a wildlife biologist with a passion for squirrels. I’m currently working on Franklin’s ground squirrels in collaboration with Nature Alberta (check out the Winter 2023 edition of Nature Alberta Magazine for more info on that project). But before that, I spent several years working on red squirrels with the Kluane Red Squirrel Project based in the Yukon. Living and working in such a beautiful, remote place was thrilling, but what surprised me was how much I fell in love with red squirrels. They taught me a lot, and I would like to share with you some of the things I’ve learned.
