Caption

Red Squirrel (Sciurus vulgaris), tree-living rodent native to Europe and Asia.[1828]. In Britain its range and numbers have diminished of the past 50 years because of competition from the Grey Squirrel (S. carolinensis) introduced from North America. From "British Quadrupeds", W MacGillivray, (Edinburgh, 1828), one of the volumes in William Jardine's Naturalist's Library series. Hand-coloured engraving.
