The Douglas Squirrel (Tamiasciurus douglasii), also known as the Chickaree, is a small, energetic squirrel found in the Pacific coastal regions of North America, particularly in forests of Oregon and California. Characterized by its reddish-brown coat and white belly, this squirrel is often seen foraging for seeds, nuts, and pine cones. The Douglas Squirrel is highly territorial and can be very vocal, making a variety of alarm calls to warn of potential threats. It is most active during the daytime and is a key part of its ecosystem.
