thanks I now have an image of a big rat having its way with a squirrel with a massive tache testing the hypothesis they can't interbreed.

I don't like grey squirrels who incidentally remind me of rats.

Other types of squirrels are available.

There sure are a lot of squirrels, rare I don't see a few on my walks.

PS Come on aTw, defend these poor little squirrels.

Rats with good PR is how we often describe them. Both are very smart (highly recommend Mark Rober's squirrel videos on the you tubes). Main thing I don't like about rats is the awful shrieking they make. Although, squirrels can growl quite loudly.
