Britain’s growing pine marten population has been found to target the non-native grey squirrel as prey more than native red squirrels
Benefits of pine martens for red squirrel populations hampered by urban areas
Lack of forest cover and presence of urban refugia are key factors in limiting the ability of pine martens to control non-native grey squirrels.
