"The animals produce an extra litter of pups months ahead of these unusually large harvests"

"They are called babies or infants while in the nest. Then for their first year they're referred to as Juveniles. After their first year, they become adults and are simply called squirrels."

I've never heard them called "pups"

Is there one place that has more squirrels,  then all others?

In the United States the largest concentration of squirrels is in Washington,  D.C.  

Specifically,  in Lafayette Park across from the White House.  

Some call it the "Squirrel Capital" of the World.  

Squirrels roam free and are well feed by the thousands of Government employees and visitors that tour the park daily.  

I thought it was inside the Capitol Building!
