🐿️Eurasian Red Squirrel
Kızıl sincap (Sciurus vulgaris), sincapgiller (Sciuridae) familyasından Avrasya'ya özgü, ağaçlarda yaşayan bir kemirici türü. Başının tepesinden kuyruğuna kadar uzunluğu, 34 cm ila 43 cm, ağırlığı 250 ila 340 g olur. Kızıl sincaplar iğne yapraklı ormanlarda yaşarlar, ama geniş yapraklı ormanlarda da yaşayabilirler. Sincaplar genelde ağaçların tohumlarıyla beslenirler. Bunun yanında mantar, yumurta, meyveler ve yavru kuşları da yiyebilirler. Sincaplar eski ağaçkakan yuvalarında yaşarlar, yuvanın içini yosun, ağaç kabuğu, yaprak ve otlarla döşerler. Baş düşmanları zerdeva, yaban kedisi, atmaca, baykuş,yılan, şahin, tilki gibi hayvanlardır. Sincapların nesli, dünya çapında tehlikede olmasa da Türkiye'de kürkleri için avlanmadan dolayı nesilleri tehlikededir.
