There are few reports of food-hoarding behavior in the Siberian flying squirrel Pteromys volans. A camera trap directed to a tree cavity captured the images of a flying squirrel with seeds of oak and lime trees in its mouth in autumn. Later many lime tree seeds were found in the cavity. The camera-trapped images and stored seeds showed that the Siberian flying squirrel probably has a habit of hoarding food.
