I want to tell you more, but Squirrels are really running things on Earth, and they aren't letting me tell you everything!

Squirrels have more than a few tricks up their sleeves. They are kind of like the professional magicians of the natural world. And they're just so darn nutty.



SIGHT:

They have as many points of view as they choose.

Arial view from the top of a tree = No problem!

Diagonal view from the side of a tree? = Sure!

Looking up from beneath their hiding spots behind the bushes? = Gotcha!



TASTE:

They are nature's hoarders.

Nuts & Acorns = they got 'em.

Berries = they'll sell you some.

Bug Proteins = Without a doubt.



APPEARANCE:

They look harmless because of those cute little rodent faces.

Whiskers? = Check Plus!

Tiny Brown eyes? = A+!

Long fluffy tail? = Valedictorian!



AGILITY:

Able to scurry? = Well, yes.

Able to climb? = Naturally.

Able to scamper? = Adorably.



And finally, BRAINS:

Able to do math? = Yes, they can calculate how many nuts they need for survival.

Able to communicate? = Yes, they work together to warn each other of approaching danger with their vocalizations!

Able to love? = With hearts as big as elephants.



And this is just part of the reason that squirrels rule. I would tell you more, but there's a little furry guy holding a gun to my head, and he looks NUTZ!

I'm outta here!
