The Impact of Humans on the Domestication of Squirrels

We would like to study the behavior of squirrels to see how human life can impact the lives of animals. We plan to do this by observing how close a human being can come to a squirrel without having it run away. To get a well rounded answer we will study squirrels in different environments: on campus, off campus, uptown,in the park, etc. We hope to gather enough information to see how squirrels can become domesticated in different environments.
