The Fox Squirrel, scientifically known as Sciurus niger, is one of the most prominent species featured in John James Audubon's renowned work, "The Quadrupeds of North America." This comprehensive volume, co-authored with John Bachman and first published in the mid-19th century, is celebrated for its detailed illustrations and descriptions of North American mammals. Audubon, primarily known for his ornithological studies, extended his artistic and scientific expertise to the mammalian fauna, capturing the essence of various species, including the Fox Squirrel, through meticulous observation and illustration.

The Fox Squirrel is the largest species of tree squirrel native to North America. It is distinguished by its robust body, bushy tail, and a coat that varies in color from gray to reddish-brown, often with a mix of both. These squirrels are primarily found in the eastern and central United States, thriving in deciduous and mixed forests where they play a crucial role in the ecosystem by aiding in seed dispersal and forest regeneration.

Audubon's depiction of the Fox Squirrel in "The Quadrupeds of North America" is not only an artistic achievement but also a valuable scientific record. His illustrations are noted for their accuracy and attention to detail, capturing the physical characteristics and natural behaviors of the species. The accompanying text, enriched by Bachman's scientific insights, provides a thorough account of the Fox Squirrel's habitat, diet, and behaviors, contributing significantly to the understanding of this species during that era.

"The Quadrupeds of North America" remains a significant work in the fields of natural history and art, reflecting Audubon's dedication to documenting the wildlife of North America. The Fox Squirrel, as portrayed in this work, continues to be a subject of interest for both naturalists and art enthusiasts, symbolizing the rich biodiversity of the continent and the enduring legacy of Audubon's contributions to wildlife illustration and conservation.
