Ruwenzori sun squirrel

Mammals

The Ruwenzori sun squirrel, Heliosciurus ruwenzorii, is a rodent in the family Sciuridae and a member of the sun squirrel genus Heliosciurus. Its common name points to the Ruwenzori range of central Africa. The species is recorded in Burundi, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Rwanda and Uganda. Its natural habitats are given as subtropical or tropical moist montane forests and arable land, so it lives both in highland forest and in farmed country. The Wikipedia article on the species is a brief stub that names only its family, countries and habitats, so facts such as its diet, size, activity pattern and conservation status are not stated there and stay recorded as outstanding for a later fill.
