Sanghir squirrel

The Sanghir squirrel, Prosciurillus rosenbergii, is a rodent of the family Sciuridae that is endemic to the volcanic Sangir Islands of Indonesia, in the Celebes Sea between Sulawesi and the Philippine island of Mindanao, just north of the equator. It is the only squirrel on those islands. This tropical tree squirrel is the most abundant mammal on the heavily cultivated island of Sangir, where it turns up across the island's many ecosystems, including towns and farms, though it is most concentrated in the shrinking old-growth lowland tropical rainforest. The island's microclimates change along the slopes of its volcanic peaks, the tallest being Mount Awu at 1,320 metres, and the squirrel has adapted to each climatic zone.
