Eastern gray squirrel - Sciurus carolinensis

I saw him live only in New York City thirty years ago, in Central Park; impressed me very much the presence of many birds and squirrels confident, I heard about many years later the invasive diffusion to England where he almost completely replaced the European Red Squirrel. These days it is spoken in Italy (where he was incautiously released), because of its obvious competition with the European squirrel, .....and I confess a little anguish thinking that Italy is assigned the containment measures required for avoid thatexpands throughout the continent ....
