A very nice surprise!
A group held in an enclosure labelled for tri-coloured squirrels (and which previously held raccoons).
Photo taken with my mobile (my camera died the day before).
Thanks to TLD for the ID.

did the sign just say "tri-coloured squirrels" or did it say "Callosciurus prevostii" as well? I have seen finlaysonii called "tri-coloured squirrels" in the pet trade, which is where these ones would have come from.
Ah ok, I had no idea. Out of interest, what's the third colour?
I think the enclosure label only said 'tri - coloured squirrels', but the website and some literature mentioned/illustrated Prevost's.
