Squirrel Templates
First is is just an outline of the squirrel woodland animal. If you are doing a craft that just needs the outline of the animals this white option with an outline will be best. Use paint or other craft materials such as tissue paper to fill it in then add googly eyes and pipe cleaners for nose and mouth to complete the craft outline. I like this option because it is a blank slate for crafts.
