Young Squirrel on Branch in Spring

Baby Squirrel in Hollow Tree Nest in Winter

Squirrels have two mating seasons per year.  Once is between December and February.  The babies are born in late winter or early spring.  The gestation period for squirrels is 38-46 days.  The other mating season is late June through August.  Those babi3s are born in late summer or early fall. 

The first drawing is of a young or juvenile squirrel on a branch in the spring.  Notice the young leaves on the tree.  This is not a tiny baby squirrel.  The next drawing IS of a baby squirrel but in late winter... looking out of the nest that is in a hollow tree.  Notice the snow on the branches.  

Most baby vertebrates have the "Cuteness Factor."  This means that the babies have a larger head-to-body ratio and often bigger feet to body size.  This cuteness factor indicates to adults that the young need care.  The eyes-head ratio is also often relatively large.  Hence these drawings show juvenile squirrels with bigger eyes and a larger head compared to the body size.   So adults have smaller head-to-body ratios and smaller eyes-to-head ratios, and smaller feet-to-body ratios.
