I believe this story.

You'd be amazed by how many electric utility outages/fires are caused by squirrels, cats, snakes, and rats getting into switch cabinets, overhead lines, and substations. No amount of critter-proofing is 100%.

We humans think we're so damned smart, but critters always seem to find a way around our gadgets and gizmoes.

I knew someone who was in the AF, statioed at Andersen AB in Guam. They had nothing but trouble with Brown Snakes in Juction boxes, etc...

I dont know if I'd call an animal that worked its way into electrical eqipment "smart," given that it leads to its rather darwinian demise.
