Go Red Squirrel watching at Newborough Forrest
Go Red Squirrel watching at Newborough Forrest. Red Squirrels, are native to the UK but were almost forced to extinction by the larger more aggressive grey squirrels. It is believed there were as few as 40 Red Squirrels left on Anglesey 20 years ago, but with a lot of help from local people Anglesey has become a strong hold for this endangered species. Whilst we do have Red Squirrels at our site the best chance of seeing these lovely creatures is with a gentle walk through Newborough Forrest .
