OP
Maybe in colder climates it would need her tail for warmth. I know they're very bushy in New England

(12,591 posts)2. Why would she not fare well without hair on her tail? I live

(63,889 posts)7. My squirrels here in CT are indicators of whether the winter will be mild or very cold. How?
I check on how thick their fur coats are in November. The fatter they look, the colder it will be.
Because of global warming, they have been skinny indeed in November.
Sure enough...

Twitching and flicking them as warnings to others and predators.
