Thank you for taking part in the Great North Squirrel Quest.

The maps are now here...  Click on the County name or map to see the detailed map for that county.

Cumbria	Northumberland	Sefton

As you can see, there is good coverage across all three areas and we are pleased to have had more sightings of reds than greys overall.

Please remember that these maps are only based on the sightings recieved during the first Great North Squirrel Quest which was in October 2008.  So the coverage of different areas is only as good as the information we recieved from you and other people visiting and living in these areas.  We will be repeating the Quest next year and hope that even more people will be able to take part.

In the meantime, if you know of red or grey squirrels in areas that are not shown on these maps, then please do report it either online here or via our hotline - 0845 347 9375.   If you see red squirrels regularly in an area, then just let us know perhaps once a month that they are still there.  If you see grey squirrels in red squirrel areas, then please do report them as soon as possible so that we can endeavour to get the greys controlled and give our beloved reds a better chance of long-term survival.

A big thank you also to the many local groups and individuals who have helped to follow-up the grey sightings and carry out the necessary work of grey control.
