Thanks to everyone sharing images of grey squirrel #barkstripping. Evidence suggests 2024 is a bad year for damage. Extensive stripping of this #oak #tree in #Sussex shows the problem. Like too many others, this tree will die. Send images to [email protected] 📸 Nick Quinn

Visit #Suffolk #Owl Sanctuary's new #redsquirrel enclosure Suffolk Owls. This breeding collection will help support #conservation efforts. Sadly #redsquirrels are endangered in GB because of competition & disease from introduced grey squirrels. Article: owl-help.org.uk/blog/2024/7/3/…

Some once-common native species are disappearing from the British countryside – our guide looks at 11 of the most endangered animal species in the UK that have suffered acute declines in recent years. countryfile.com/wildlife/most-…

A great example on how genomics can inform conservation management was provided by Melissa Marr, PhD with the example of Scotland's #redsquirrels. Translocation between pops should be considered to increase genetic diversity.
