A nutty squirrel.

Every summer we sit and watch critters get drunk from eating fermented pears that fall from our trees. Squirrels, deer, foxes, crows, you name it. It’s quite entertaining.

My girlfriend in the 80’s had a big jar of fermenting peaches that were quite alcoholic. Great on ice cream!

This happened to one of my Irish Wolfhounds. Clare loved apples. She picked them from the trees and ate the apples she found on the ground.

The apples that were fermented caused a problem...ethanol toxicosis...which screwed up her heart.

Moral of the story: Keep your dogs away from fermented fruit.

There’s a tree in Africa (can’t recall its name) that bears fruit which,if left on the ground for awhile,ferments. Elephants,monkey and other African animals love the fruit and there are videos on youtube showing them tipsy after eating it.

I was visiting a house on a small lake. They had problems with Canadian Geese coming onto the yard.

So, they soaked cans of corn in vodka for a while then fed it to the geese. They got hammered, fought with each other, then bad hangover. They no longer step foot on the lawn.
