The squirrel family is one of the most widespread on Earth. So what is the secret to its success? This film reveals the extraordinary abilities of these cheeky characters and sees their problem solving skills put to the test on a specially designed assault course. It reveals some groundbreaking discoveries from the fox squirrel, who can remember the location of 9,000 nuts, to the grey squirrel, whose tree-top leaps are the basis of new designs in robotics. It also sees the world through the eyes of an orphan red squirrel called Billy, as he develops the skills he will need to be released back to the wild. It is time to meet the animal family we should never underestimate: the super squirrels.
