🚨POX OUTBREAK!🚨 I’ve been informed there’s an outbreak of the dreaded Squirrel Pox Virus at Rutter Falls near @applebytown 💔😢🐿️ It ONLY TAKES ONE GREY SQUIRREL to get in amongst a healthy population of our endangered reds and they can be wiped out in just weeks 😢 PLEASE KEEP YA EYES PEELED. Report any sightings of greys or badly reds ASAP to the Penrith & District Red Squirrel Group: penrithredsquirrels.org.uk Grey squirrels are one of the most invasive species in the world. They cause terrible harm to habitats, properties and native red squirrel populations. Needless to say, poor Jim at Rutter Falls is devastated and will be trying his best at first light today to mitigate the spread and locate the non-native grey squirrel.
