Abstract
A free-ranging Eastern gray squirrel (Sciurus carolinensis) was presented for ulcerated cutaneous masses at the base of both pinnae in July 2021. Diagnosis of cutaneous histiocytosis was achieved by histologic and immunohistochemical examination of one excised mass and supported by spontaneous resolution of the contralateral mass before the squirrel's release.
