Grizzled giant squirrel by Nihal jabin
Descrição:
Description: English: The common name of the grizzled giant squirrel (Ratufa macroura) came from the grey to brown colouration highlighted with white at the top of the tail, giving it a grizzled appearance. The rest of the body varies in colour geographically and may be brown, red, grey or black, but the fur on the underside is always lighter than the back. This agile climber is adapted for life spent almost entirely in the trees, and has a very long tail for balance, broad hands for climbing and large claws for gripping branches. The ears are short, round and sometimes tufted. Also known as Sri Lankan giant squirrel. Date: 25 February 2018, 09:34:53. Source: Own work. Author: Nihaljabinedk.
