How do squirrels rest?
Ground squirrels live on or in the ground and not in trees. Gray squirrels, however, sleep in tree nests during the winter and only venture out during the morning and evening. Instead of hibernating, they rely on sheltered nests or dens in trees, fat reserves, and stored food to survive the long, cold winter.
Do squirrels take naps?
Squirrels like many small mammals are 'crepuscular' which means they are particularly active for a couple of hours in the early mornings and late afternoons but during the main body of the day can sleep for as much as 18 to 20 hours.
Do squirrels rest on branches?

Do squirrels sit still?
