Squirrels of all colors and varieties are incredibly cute but imagine a massive multi-colored squirrel with a long purple tail… now that brings the cuteness of nut-loving squirrels to a whole new level. Meet the Malabar giant squirrel, its nickname is the Shekru. Native to India, this brightly colored squirrel has an epically long tail that ranges in color – some taking on resplendent shades of blue and purple.

So cute, yes. But magnificent? Beautiful? Probably not. Well, maybe these stylish squirrels will go some way toward changing that! The Malabar giant squirrel, also known as Shekru, is native to India and comes quite resplendent in an incredibly dapper multi-colored coat.
