   Good pets, let's seeeee....lice, disease, feral temperment, .... squirrels are good for entertainment though, the dogs love chasin' em, and in a pinch, you can make a good gamy tree-rat stew....soak the bastards in a brine first, with a little apple cider vinegar, to get the stuff tenderized a bit, and some of that musky flavor out the way.

   Amazing they were spotted in what was, I imagine, a chaotic situation.

   They're just nursing the squirrels back to heath so they can introduce the critters properly to a catapult.

   as a veterinary technician in south florida, and a volunteer wildlife reahbilitator, i can tell you that squirrels make TERRIBLE pets. they can't be housebroken,(they do just run around in trees all day, and use urine and feces to mark territory) they are skittish, being fearful over any diosturbance or changes in their envirnment, and are uterly miserable being in a cage.

   how would you like to live in a one bedroom apartment, when your kitchen is right next to an open toilet? that you can't flush? i thought so.

   also, even though their is no shortage of squirrels, they are still our responsibilty, since we are the only other species that completly alters and destroys our envirnment in a manner that doesn't benefit other species very much. yes-elephants knock down trees, which opens up more areas for young trees and brush... we destroy a forested area, lay down thousands of tons of concrete, build huge hangers, and fly huge iron machines full of flammable liquid around, simply to satisfy our own needs. oh-and we regularly patrol these man-made monstrocities, eradicating native aniamls we don't want, and then using pesticides, fertilizers, and lawnmowers to make the airport "look pleasant". which leaves little for other species to benefit from. except bugs. and vagrants.

   humans suck.

    Be honest, miranda.
    We know the truth. This is just another link in the chain of Neatorama's anti-squirrel agenda.

    Soon, you'll be reading about robotic squirrels from Japan that require little care, not like these pesky airport-infesting critters.

    Why, it's diabolical.
