About half of them don’t survive their first winter.
However it’s astonishing what they can do physically (I don’t know of anyone else that can run at full speed up or down a tree with their nuts in their mouth), & they can solve problems with the trial & error method. I’ve seen a film clip when a squirrel got into the dispenser tray at the bottom of a vending machine & no more than 5 seconds later, came back out with a candy bar.
BBC has put out a couple of documentaries about squirrels, named Daylight Robbery, & Daylight Robbery 2. You’ll never look at squirrels the same way again…

Also anyone who hasn’t read EGS
Grace is definitely adorable – mostly, some of her forms can be a bit scary
Or Sequential Art.
Around here, they Aminita Muscaria mushrooms, go all psycho, and sit in the trees swearing at us humans for using their air.
