Fidgety 8 Posted September 1, 2008 Report Share Posted September 1, 2008 Are these a mutation, or a different species? Quote Link to post
karlp86 0 Posted September 1, 2008 Report Share Posted September 1, 2008 they are a mutation and they have alot of that pigment thing hence they are black. abit like the black wild rabbits i have seen, exactly the same as normal ones but the obviously have a pigment mutation and are jet black.

FOXHUNTER 5,022 Posted September 6, 2008 Report Share Posted September 6, 2008 Ive seen black squirrels whilst stalking in Essex near Saffron Walden !! Quote Link to post
The one 8,600 Posted September 6, 2008 Report Share Posted September 6, 2008 So is it legit to shoot them ?? Quote Link to post
masmiffy 82 Posted September 6, 2008 Report Share Posted September 6, 2008 Deker as I type this I can see a black one in my walnut tree along with two greys!! Dont shoot em in the garden too many prying eyes! They first appeared round here about 4 - 5 years ago. Quite common around Welwyn Stevenage way I believe. May have posted a topic myself about this a while ago! Have to confess to having a tail in the shed Quote Link to post
