Squirrel Roundup (May 31, 2011)


Life in a small town
From the Burlingame police blotter:
3:33 p.m. A resident found a baby squirrel on the 1100 block of Trousdale Drive and did not have a car to transport it to the animal hospital.
What, the resident didn't have a pellet gun either?

More small town squirrel trouble
From the Flathead County and Kalispell police blotter:
3:16 p.m. A Columbia Falls man wanted to talk to the animal warden about "shipping out" an aggressive squirrel.
Seriously, people! You can pick up a pretty decent pellet gun for under $40!

Squirrel: Chicken of the trees
It's nice to see some people understand what squirrels are good for:
To paraphrase blogger turned cookbook author Hank Shaw - if you wanted to starve to death in the wilderness, you'd have to try pretty hard. Squirrels are plentiful - overly so in some regions.
My mouth is watering already.

Entrepreneurial squirrel
There's a new children's book entitled Jason Squirrel Starts a Company. Hmmm. Squirrels are free-market capitalists? I may have to rethink my opinion of these bushy-tailed rodents.
