Ardilla Moruna Atlantoxerus getulus (Linnaeus, 1758)

Authors: López-Darias, Marta;

Ardilla Moruna Atlantoxerus getulus (Linnaeus, 1758)

Abstract

La ardilla moruna (Atlantoxerus getulus), única especie actual de su género, es originaria del noroeste de África (Marruecos y algunas zonas de Argelia). En 1965, una pareja adquirida en Sidi Ifni fue introducida en la isla de Fuerteventura, Islas Canarias, como animal de compañía por un habitante de la isla. Un escape accidental de una de las ardillas provocó la liberación de su compañera. En 1979 la ardilla moruna ocupaba ya tres núcleos diferenciados de la isla y, en la actualidad ha colonizado prácticamente todo el territorio insular. Habita en altas densidades tanto las zonas antrópicas de la isla, áreas cultivadas o eriales abandonados, como los hábitats naturales, a excepción de los jables (grandes extensiones de arena orgánica), que ocupan en menor número.

En épocas más recientes se ha producido el transporte de animales desde Fuerteventura a las vecinas islas de Gran Canaria, donde las primeras poblaciones se localizaron a finales de los años 90, y de Lanzarote, donde han sido descubiertas en el año 2006. Si bien en Gran Canaria aquellas poblaciones incipientes parecen haber sido erradicadas, la actuación ineficaz de las administraciones locales en Lanzarote hace posible que aún sigan existiendo ardillas en libertad en esta última isla.
