Squirrels also use shaking their tails for more than just protection. They can use it for mating too. When other squirrels see one shaking their tail they become attracted to the squirrel. kyia_183478 https://padlet.com/kyia_183478/vqxm0vrf3rx3/wish/269888216 2018-07-10 23:33:43 UTC https://padlet.com/kyia_183478/vqxm0vrf3rx3/wish/269888216 This has become an adaptation because whenever squirrels feel threatened they automatically shake their tail as an instinct without thinking. kyia_183478 https://padlet.com/kyia_183478/vqxm0vrf3rx3/wish/269888243 2018-07-10 23:34:37 UTC https://padlet.com/kyia_183478/vqxm0vrf3rx3/wish/269888243 The benefit of this social behavior is that it keeps the squirrel safe. kyia_183478 https://padlet.com/kyia_183478/vqxm0vrf3rx3/wish/269888323 2018-07-10 23:36:52 UTC https://padlet.com/kyia_183478/vqxm0vrf3rx3/wish/269888323 I found my information on, kyia_183478 https://padlet.com/kyia_183478/vqxm0vrf3rx3/wish/269888366 https://www.knowswhy.com/why-do-squirrels-shake-their-tails/]]> 2018-07-10 23:37:57 UTC https://padlet.com/kyia_183478/vqxm0vrf3rx3/wish/269888366
