What is the typical home range of a squirrel in Pennsylvania?

The typical home range of a squirrel in Pennsylvania is generally recognized to be between 1 to 100 acres. This range can vary based on several factors, including the species of squirrel, the availability of food, habitat quality, and population density. In urban or suburban areas where food sources are abundant and natural habitats may be fragmented, squirrels may occupy smaller home ranges. Conversely, in more natural settings with limited food or resources, their home ranges may extend toward the higher end of the scale. Understanding the home range of squirrels helps in managing their populations and addressing any nuisance issues they may present.

The other ranges presented do not accurately reflect the generally accepted home range for squirrels in Pennsylvania, making the chosen range the most appropriate answer.
