A captivating video of the Malabar giant squirrel (Ratufa indica) leaping effortlessly between trees has gone viral after being shared by IAS officer Supriya Sahu on the social media platform X. The video showcases the agility of this spectacular arboreal mammal, which inhabits the dense tropical forests of the Western and Eastern Ghats.

Known for its vibrant multi-colored coat, the Malabar Giant Squirrel displays hues of maroon, brown, black, and cream that not only make it visually striking but also help it blend into the shadowy forest canopy. These squirrels are largely solitary and territorial, spending the majority of their time high up in the trees, where they build large nests.

The video, which has garnered significant attention, serves as a reminder of the urgent need to conserve the lush forests these creatures call home. The Malabar Giant Squirrel plays a key role in the ecosystem, and the preservation of native trees is crucial for its survival.
