What is Squirrel's vision?

Squirrels have a unique visual capability that allows them to see ultraviolet (UV) light. This adaptation is particularly useful for communication within their species. For instance, ground squirrels can signal each other by reflecting sunlight off their stomachs, much like how a human might use a mirror to send signals over a distance 1 .

In another context, the term "Squirrel's vision" is used metaphorically by Mutaz Qubbaj, founder of the financial wellbeing platform Squirrel, to describe his company's mission. Squirrel aims to help individuals achieve financial freedom by providing tools and services to manage their money more effectively 2 .
