Squirrels' competition by Jana Kokavcova

Squirrel is a mammal that we know from some fairy tales. Nice , cute, funny. But what we really know about this fascinating animal. Do we know about competitions between grey and red squirrels? No. I don't think so. We really don't know a lot about this animal, how does their life looks like. It is maybe not so simple as we think. Red squirrels in United Kingdom are in danger. Why? Because of their cousins Grey squirrels. They are more powerful and not so weak and have better conditions for life. So they find mates, have small squirrels and are not so in danger as red squirrels. Red squirrels are really in danger. There are now only 40,000 red squirrels in Ireland. How can it be so? Ireland survives red squirrels. There are some special measurements to protect red squirrels. What could people do? They could help. But don't you think it is all about nature? Should we play a role of God? Could we? I know, it is too sad that one brand of squirrels is in better situation than the another, but..that is life. It is "law of jungle". And poor squirrels are a part of this law system. We can do what we want to do, but we can not find a right way how to escape before destiny of nature and before destiny of our world.
