Wow, I'm jealous. I've spent a lot of time in the backcountry but never seen one. Even higher on my list would be a Fisher but at my age I'm not optimistic of checking either off my bucket list.

My contribution isn't nearly as exciting but they are furry and aren't squirrels...

Echidnas are too spiky to be cuddly, and don't mess around with a big adult male Grey Kangaroo - they can gut you with a kick! Great photos!

Is it just grey squirrels that are excluded from the thread or are Arctic ground squirrels out too?

Just in case ground squirrels are out, here's a sea otter doing sea otter stuff

Impalas:
- got fur
- are not squirrels

I saw these guys on the West coast of the USA. So cool!

Great shot.

This newborn will lose its fur in a few weeks before it takes to the sea.
