It is hoped that red squirrels' resistance to squirrelpox might prove similar to rabbits with myxomatosis, which initially killed around 98% of the rabbit population before the animal bounced back. But Chantrey said the outlook was less positive for red squirrels. The myxomatosis virus became less severe because it was, in effect, destroying itself by killing its rabbit host so effectively. With squirrelpox virus, there is no imperative for it to become less virulent to red squirrels because it lives within the grey squirrel population as well.
