The Eastern grey squirrel is not a native B.C animal, yet has thrived in urban environments throughout the Lower Mainland for decades.
Eastern Grey Squirrels are native to eastern and central North America.
In 1909, six adult grey squirrels were introduced to Stanley Park, Vancouver.
They found themselves at home, not in the deep dark forest, but in the open park near Lost Lagoon, where gardens of non-native trees and plants supplied fruit, seeds and buds, and
visitors provided food either directly, by hand-feeding, or incidentally throughdiscarded food waste. The Stanley Park population grew steadily over following decades, aided by its high reproductive rate and the scarceness of natural predators. They spread throughout Vancouver in the 1970s, into Richmond in early 1980s, and throughout most of
Lower Mainland by 2000. Aiding in their spread was active transport by people, removing a “pest” from their own property and releasing it elsewhere, often a park or green area
in another neighbourhood, where they thrived and continued to spread.
