How did white squirrels get to Brevard?
A pair were trapped in Florida and brought to Brevard as captive “pets” in the late 1940′s. They were then “released” in the early 1950′s. They had then the same markings (head patch and dorsal stripe) that distinguish our Brevard white squirrels today. Once again, I refer you to Barbara Mull Lang’s account (click here) for the details.
