Fox Squirrel - HD Mini-Documentary

Transcript: "Named for its orange tint and large bushy tail, the fox squirrel is the largest tree squirrel native to North America.

It is mainly found in the eastern United States and southern Canada excluding New England with introduced populations in several western states.

They thrive in open areas with trees like oak, hickory, walnut and pine that produce food that can be stored for the winter. They primarily depend on tree seeds for food, but when that is scarce they will turn to other sources like buds, fruits, grain and insects.

They hide small caches of nuts in dispersed locations and come back to retrieve them in the winter. Unretrieved nuts are left to germinate and form new trees.

Fox Squirrels are dirurnal which means they are active during the day and rest at night. They spend more time on the ground than most tree squirrels, but are still very agile climbers."

and where do you plan to put these "predators". My back yard has enough. Maybe we will put them in yours? Wolves, bear, cougars, coyotes, crocodiles! They are not extinct bro. Not by a long shot. You should look up agenda 21 and understand the agenda and how we have been socially engineered. Save nature and kill man. Some of the worst people want the planet all to themselves and they will kill you to have it. The super rich, greedy, and powerful. Our predators.

[Bigcockbird78]

@AgileHProductions Predators have a lot of protection. Peta type of fools fuck shit up. Ex: Look up the reintroduction of wolves in Yellowstone. They are a menace now. They have killed half the pop of elk in West MT. They are not regulated and soon will wipe out elk and deer. Huge damage to the eco system because of liberal city idiots that don't understand shit. The reintroduction has not given prey enough time to evolve and the native wolf gene pool has been changed with ill results.

@Bigcockbird78 I see it as the predators were our enemies, but now we've defeated them and it's our duty to find some space for them. I think that men of god should be interested in protecting god's creatures. If you are conserving land for wildlife then I commend you.

P.S. I hope you don't think I'm trying to pick a fight. I just have real concerns about the direction that things are going.

[Bigcockbird78]

@AgileHProductions There are prices to pay for civilization. I wish there was less people myself, but that is god's decision not ours. Replace god with "nature" if you like. I think we meddle to much. I hate civilized and wish it was all natural, but ethically speaking, I have to pick the grand creation of man over animal for loyalty's sake. Unfortunately predators are instinctual enemies.

What do I conserve? I shall have to put it on youtube. It is a haven of wildlife!

Farewell

[AgileHProductions]

@Bigcockbird78 What really bothers me is that we are making animals go extinct faster than at any other time in the history of the earth. They are dying faster than they can evolve. There is almost no place for predatory mammals left in the United States. There are a lot of animals that can live off the byproducts of humans, but those that can't are screwed. I want people to enjoy their lives and have livelihoods, but in a way that conserves animals and habitats. What do you conserve?

[Bigcockbird78]

@AgileHProductions Take my post literally. I did not say you were a problem to nature, but rather a benefit. man has his place/nature. You have been taught otherwise and indoctrinated with self hate through the self interest of others that don't get nature. Corporate fascism/greedy men rule the world. Not you. GMO unnatural planting seed is more of a prob (greedy monopolizing fools). Look into that! till then drink a 6 pack and save a bird. I am a farmer, hunter, builder, and conservationist.

[AgileHProductions]

@Bigcockbird78 I agree that I am part of the problem. You said that owls kill everything. I'm just saying that humans have a bigger impact on killing wildlife than owls do. Maybe you disagree.

[Bigcockbird78]

@AgileHProductions What! Go drink your beer, bro. You are so brainwashed. Mowed lawns have nothing to do with anything and cover practically none of the earth's surface. You consume more acres by your personal beer consumption every year than mowing your grass. But don't worry because the spill over leaves a lot of feed for wildlife in the winter. A lot of spill over! Barley/grain fields actually feed more wild life than you could imagine.

[AgileHProductions]

@Bigcockbird78 1) I did not realize these creatures were born out of wedlock. :)

2) Owls rule. They eat rodents, but that is the natural cycle of wildlife. Humans are the ones fucking everything up. We're mowing our lawns and destroying valuable habitat for squirrels and owls.

[AgileHProductions]

@WildlifeFootage101 I think they were black walnuts, but it's been a long time since my dad told me what kind of nuts they were, so I could be wrong.

[WildlifeFootage101]

what was the food that the squirrel was eating???

[Bigcockbird78]

I love these little bastards which leads me to my least favorite bird, the owl. I used to like owls but they kill everything. Owls are a parasite, or competition? I guess I like them in a strange way. They fuck everything up though.

[AgileHProductions]

@cleokautz I didn't realize that I had created a horror film. Squirrels do have dark hearts. Watch your back.

[cleokautz]

lol i barly wached this video but that scared me in the beging when the fox squirrel jumped down so fast lol nice videooooooo :0

[jwmckin08]

I've been told that fox squirrels tend to stay in fielded areas while grey squirrels tend to stay in heavily wooded areas.

[AgileHProductions]

@jwmckin08 I also made a grey squirrel video. I think the grey squirrel is a hardier squirrel.

[jwmckin08]

I see some of these where I live, but it's mostly gray squirrels.

@Dernhelmful Thanks for watching. I hope to do more nature videos in the future. They are a lot of fun to make.

[Dernhelmful]

What a wonderful work! Informative, enthralling to watch and well-narrated! I'm going to recommend your series of mini documentaries to my daughter's kindergarten teacher this coming fall. A primary focus of this year's syllabus is The World of Animals and the relationship with and responsibilities for animals that people have. What a great find! Thank you for doing this.

@binturong1000 Is it the same kind of squirrel?

[kuhlekatze]

These are the best squirrels around...I want to pet one. They hang around my yard all the time.

[AgileHProductions]

@ardillon20024 Do you want standard or express delivery?

[ardillon20024]

I want one of these squirrels, can you catch one for me and mail it to my house??

[binturong1000]

Nebraska in Omaha they are black.
