I  immediately rushed out to investigate the situation, finding 287.  We  first collared 287 on Oct 3, 2017.  We found him 291 times over the 582  days he wore the collar.  We last located him on March 21, 2019, quite  close to where he died.  His collar was no longer transmitting when I  collected him.  The map below shows an home range of 30.8 acres (12.5  ha)&#8211;far larger than what is known for gray squirrels in native parts of  their range (but not in places they have been introduced).    <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I could not figure out what caused the mortality.  He was in good  physical condition.  There were no apparent wounds from predators.  His  posture does not suggest a fall from the tree.  He had been dead for a  day or so, as his eyes were missing and there were a few ants on him.   Interesting fella. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"523\" src=\"https:\/\/sites.une.edu\/perlutlab\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2019\/05\/image-e1557329289193-1024x523.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-198\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.une.edu\/perlutlab\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2019\/05\/image-e1557329289193-1024x523.png 1024w, https:\/\/sites.une.edu\/perlutlab\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2019\/05\/image-e1557329289193-300x153.png 300w, https:\/\/sites.une.edu\/perlutlab\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2019\/05\/image-e1557329289193-768x392.png 768w, https:\/\/sites.une.edu\/perlutlab\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2019\/05\/image-e1557329289193.png 1401w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>Each dot represents one point in time where we found 287 with radio telemetry.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/sites.une.edu\/perlutlab\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2019\/05\/287-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-199\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.une.edu\/perlutlab\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2019\/05\/287-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/sites.une.edu\/perlutlab\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2019\/05\/287-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/sites.une.edu\/perlutlab\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2019\/05\/287-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The squirrel phone buzzed today with a call about a dead collared and ear-tagged squirrel laying &hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":11,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"post_folder":[],"class_list":["post-212","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.2 -
