Damn people! Kill the SOB!!!
He would not last long in an American town. I can see the shotguns coming out now.
At our camp ground, a squirrel got into one of the empty camp houses through the chimney and could not get back out.
He tore that house from one end to the other. Hundreds of dollars in damages.
He attempted to claw his way through the front picture window destroying the woodwork all around the window frame.
Your story makes me think of this. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6z6ixrfKgO0
That is quite a tail!
For the record, I despise squirrels. I have managed to trap and kill 10 of those little bastadges in the last 8 weeks or so. I have not done much in the last 10-14 days, but I am not done with them.
They have broken into my house 5 times in the last several years. They have destroyed my roof. They have caused thousands of Dollars in damage to my domain. I cannot even explain it all.
Be certain, I hate them, and any mercy that I may have is reserved for those poor skunks in my area. I trapped 4 of them and I released them all. They never did violence to my home and they are quite docile.
Once I capture a squirrel though, say Goodnight Irene. Those tree rodents are mental cases. The ones in my yard or area are truly aggressive. Well, I dunno if whacking just 10 is enough, so I am not going to stop. I will teach those trespassers to stay off of my property. So far so good.
It is incredible the damage that they have done to my home. It is probably $50 thousand Dollars once it is all settled.
Might have had to break out the Mosin for that one.
The RSPCA should have waited to euthanize the critter until it determined that it did not have rabies.
Did the squirrel used to be a Raiderette cheerleader and Baywatch actress?
That was my first thought - acting crazy, rabies ....
But evidently not ....
https://www.cdc.gov/rabies/exposure/animals/other.html
“Small rodents (like squirrels, hamsters, guinea pigs, gerbils, chipmunks, rats, and mice) and lagomorphs (including rabbits and hares) are almost never found to be infected with rabies and have not been known to transmit rabies to humans.”
I will teach those trespassers to stay off of my property.
***The squirrels in the backyard have been conditioned not to fear people. None of my roommates nor prior tenants did anything about them. I got pissed when their droppings ruined my chair and when I sat on it, it looked like I had pooped my pants & it was extremely difficult to clean.
So I made a slingshot out of rubber bands and a branch from the backyard. I’ve sent hundreds of shots down range and hit only one of them. But it scares them and they know it’s me when I go into the back yard. I have found that shooting a lot of small dirtclogs is very effective because the noise hits all the leaves around them & they feel like they can’t dodge it. No more hanging out above where I sit.
The stupid woman who fed it is responsible for the entire incident. Cat ladies are bad enough. Now there are SQUIRREL ladies??
Fortunately, they have extremely strict gun control, so nobody got hurt.
We’re going to need a bigger nut.
“Did the squirrel used to be a Raiderette cheerleader and Baywatch actress?”
Good one!!!
I was listening to an Art Bell rerun last night and someone sent him a squirrel story that he read on air.
I miss Art Bell, george snorry is a talentless hack
Squirrels don't get or transmit rabies.
Here in the US. he’d have been released on his own
recognizance and sentenced to 15 minutes of community service.
Tell that to R.J. and Hammie ...
