Squirrels and Shrew

Squirrels and Shrew


In the order of the photos, the first 4 of these animals were found in the same spot in Fraser’s Hill, reflecting its richness in biodiversity. The 5th squirrel is photographed in AHD, Penang.

1. Himalayan Striped Squirrel. A cute little squirrel which can move on leaves. Note the interesting white tips on the ears.
2. Gray-bellied Squirrel.
3. Treeshrew.  I saw them in front and behind my house. A squirrel brave enough to find food near human residential compounds.
4. Lesser Gymnure.
5. Plantain Squirrel.  Common squirrel seen in most parts of Malaysia.
