It is a mystical red griffin that only exists in 1315 to the year It became extinct which was 1819.
Records by the Ronettes, who were their inspiration. the Chipmunks are a male take-off on the Ronettes and Dave Seville is a take-off on Phil Spector. Alvin seems to be patterned after Nedra, the youngest Ronette. Nedra!!
No squirrels are not evil. They are really pretty good. Especially in a crock pot with potatoes and carrots and gravy. Squirrels are just very inquisitive animals that are always looking for food. == To quote from one post I read on the Internet, once squirrels get in your attick, you should consider them your "personal terrorists."
NO!
Baby racoons will do this when they are happy and feel like they are protected and safe. I've had several litters of baby racoons and they would always purr when they were curled up in a warm spot, nursing or when we'd pet them.
How did the squirrels have strips?
long time ago, a bear and a squirrel argued about the benefits of having a sun or not.
the bear got angry since the squirrel would not stop b*tching about it
so he ran after him but alas, the squirrel was too fast, but he did manage to land a single hit, with his claws, he slashed at the fleeing squirrel and made deep claw wound
and then the sun risen for the first time and the bear felt foolish.
The sun gratefully healed the wounds on the squirrel's back but burning the claw marks, which left an imprint that to this day remains as a badge of honor.
Yes...most would assime that squirrel's are herbivores but I had a squirrel hop on my porch and eat a left over pepperoni pizza....I think they eat mostly non meat products but if an opportunity arises and they are hungry they will eat meat
How do you stop squirrels from eating your deck?
Some gardeners buy a fake owl and place it in a prominent and visible location in either their garden or on their deck. Most birds are highly respectful of the owl in the wild as it is a predator that eats small rodents and birds. There are a variety of fake owls available, some with swivel or bobbing heads to further create the illusion of a live owl, and many garden centers carry them.

yes; they can't digest it and it clogs their gullets so the suffocate; cheap and effective.
Are squirrels helpful or harmful to man?
actually, most wild squirrels can be quite friendly once they've become familiar with you. it is rare for squirrels to carry any diseases transmittable to humans. it's fun to have wild squirrels reside in your yard and some squirrels can even be trained to eat from your hands! (just don't feed them salted foods!)
What is a vestigial structure in a squirrel?
The appendix is no longer used by a giraffe, but it still remains an organ theta just sits there in a giraffe.
What type of habitat do squirrel live in?
I live in Northern California and I have one that lives in and around my backyard. It jumps from tree to tree and comes into my front and back yard to tease the neighborhood tom cats. It is quite comical but it lives in suburbia terrain. I see them all over California and have seen them all over Colorado as well. I have seen them in Nevada and Idaho. Give them a tree and some water and I think they can live anywhere they can forge for food.
Are squirrels warm blooded or coldblooded?
squirrels are warm blooded because all mammles are warm blooded. everyone knows that.

Probably none. Birds generally build their own nests. It makes them feel safe.
