They've already been sighted in London, and they'll wipe out the Greys and the Reds.

My goodness....the squirrel plot is thickening!  But there's more.....there's the Squirrat!

Mythical beast ... is this a 'squirrat'?
 

By CLODAGH HARTLEY

 ARE we going nuts — or is this evidence of a mythical cross-breed of squirrels and rats?

This sighting of a grey creature with a hairless tail has sparked debate as to whether it is a “squirrat”. Artist Sia Sumaria, 41, snapped the animal in her back garden in central London.

 

Breeding ... inner city rat
 

She said: “This creature appears to have a rat’s tail. I thought maybe it had crossed with a rat. Squirrels in my garden want nothing to do with it.”

Experts say it is a squirrel struck by hair loss.

But websites insist some have mated with inner-city rats resulting in hybrid offspring.

Sounds like a tall tail to us . . .

I think that rat-tailed squirrel tangled with something and narrowly got away except for his tail hair...say a fox, or dog, or owl, or the crotch of tree limb?

Then again, it could organized warfare where Reds disquise themselves as Greys and Greys morph into rats...very clever.
