Collie's squirrel is a medium-sized rodent that lives in trees in the forests of western Mexico. It is active during the day and climbs branches well.
Collie's squirrel differs from related species by its gray-reddish coloration and its preference for dry tropical forests of Mexico. It is important for nature because it spreads plant seeds and serves as prey for predators.
