KHOU earlier showed an animal shelter with something like 40 squirrels in it. They said concerned residents noticed that the rodentia didn’t have a home anymore and brought them to the shelter.

I’m having a hard time reconciling independent gun-toting Texans with rescuing wild park animals (vermin) that can make their own way to higher ground.
