(Or, I could have said ';a furry little mammal having a bushy tail, fond of nuts, goes by the name 'Rocky', best friend Bullwinkle, and hails from Frostbite Falls, Minnesota.'; But I won't.)
A squirrel is a small or medium-sized rodent of the family Sciuridae. In the English-speaking world, it commonly refers to members of this family's genera Sciurus and Tamiasciurus, which are tree squirrels that have large bushy tails, and are indigenous to Europe, Asia and the Americas. Similar genera are found in Africa.
The Sciuridae family also include flying squirrels, as well as ground squirrels such as the chipmunks, prairie dogs, and woodchucks. Members of the unrelated family Anomaluridae are sometimes misleadingly referred to as ';scaly-tailed flying squirrels';.

A squirrel that flies. LoL.
They are several species of squirrel with a flap of skin between their fore and aft legs that allow them to glide after jumping of trees. They do not fly per se.
