Black squirrels are usually found in the south part of Ontario and Quebec. In United States there are a large number of black squirrels in Iowa and Kansas which is known as the “Black Squirrel City”. Also, in Ohio there are some populations of black squirrels which descend from a pair that was brought in the 1890s.
In 1914 the black squirrel was introduced in Vancouver and since then they have spread throughout Vancouver – North Shore – Fraser Valley. Also, from Vancouver, they have spread into the Washington State area.
Black squirrels also can be found in Europe; England has several black squirrel populations in Hertfordshire, Bedfordshire, Cambridge and other locations. Black squirrels have been found in the eastern area of Russia.
As you can see, black squirrels are all around the world and their population is getting bigger and bigger by the day. These squirrels are actually gray squirrels with high levels of the black melanin in their hair.
