∙ 7y agoSquirrels live in the same place they did during the summer. Ground squirrels hibernate, but Tree squirrels do not. Tree squirrels can be found in their nests in the trees, with their families, trying to keep warm together.
Before the winter months you see them storing food, that's how they stay alive through the winter.
Any of about 260 species in 50 genera (family Sciuridae) of mostly diurnal rodents found almost worldwide. Many species are arboreal; some are terrestrial. All species have strong hind legs and a hairy tail. They vary widely in colour and form and range in total length from the 4-in. (10-cm) African pygmy squirrel to the giant squirrels of Asia, about 35 in. (90 cm) long. Tree dwellers live in a tree hollow or nest, and most are active year-round. Ground dwellers live in burrows, and many become dormant in winter (hibernate) or summer (estivate). As opposed to some ground squirrels (like white-tailed prairie dog), tree squirrels do not hibernate. They however become very inactive during the winter months to preserve energy.
