Coco is a grey squirrel who lives in Hyde Park and I met him one<br />

Sunday by the serpentine lake. He loves brioches, especially<br />

chocolate ones so I called him Coco. As you can see there are<br />

friendly wild animals everywhere even in Central London!<br />

When a squirrel climbs up your leg it's a bit alarming at first<br />

but it tickles from their blunt claws. Well they are kind of<br />

sharp but they didn't hurt through my jeans. Squirrel's are<br />

vegetarians and eat all sorts of things like nuts, seeds, fruit,<br />

mushrooms, bark and more. One of their favourites is dried<br />

corn on the cob hung from a branch. Coco is a bit different as<br />

his favourite food seemed to be pastries!<br />

If you want to meet Coco then wander up and down between<br />

the Princess Diana memorial and the Serpentine but make<br />

sure you take a chocolate brioche with you and look out for a<br />

very cute, cheeky looking fun filled grey squirrel!<br />

Interesting Facts-<br />

Gray squirrels are called "living<br />

fossils" because they haven't<br />

changed much in 37 million years.<br />

Squirrels car run at speeds of up to<br />

20 miles per hour - now that's quick!<br />

Got any<br />

nuts?<br />
