Here in Washington, DC, we are the only place in the U.S. (I think) that has black squirrels. I read on a plaque at the National Zoo that they were brought down from Toronto after hunters decimated the local grey squirrel population years back. You see them everywhere in the city to this day.
… and Brevard, a pleasant town in western North Carolina has white squirrels.
They exist in other parts of the US as well.
"Large natural populations of black (eastern gray) squirrels can be found throughout Ontario and in several parts of Ohio, Maryland, Michigan, Houston, Indiana, Virginia, Washington, D.C., Iowa, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Pennsylvania,[7] and Kentucky.[8] "
It's interesting that humans seem to be into squirrel sharing. In 1909 or 1914, depending on the source, eight eastern Grey squirrels were introduced into the squirrel population in Stanley Park in Vancouver.
Who or why, is lost to history.
My guess is that NYC squirrels have similar political views as Vancouver squirrels.

In United States there is a large population of black squirrels in New York, Iowa, Kansas and Ohio. Populations of black squirrels in Ohio descended from a pair that was introduced there in 1890.
Black squirrels were introduced to Vancouver BC in 1914 and since then they have spread southwards into Washington state. By now there are most likely some in Idaho and Oregon too.
Even the black squirrels in the United Kingdom have been introduced from North America.

So is the trade in nuts and acorns regulated by NAFTA?
Not anymore, if it ever was. The orange nut in the white house killed NAFTA and changed the name of the new one to USMCA. Maybe it regulates nuts now. Try wrapping your tongue around that one to say it as one word, it feels like trying to talk with a mouthful of nuts. I think at the very least it should have been titled CUSMA or MUSCA to make it easier to say as a word.

Well, some of us wish we could trade that large orange nut, but I think there aren't gonna be any takers.
