I don’t know nuthin’.
SQUIRREL! (THose at teh BEC will know what I’m talkin about! : )
Were those Mississippi tags on the getaway car?
“Doctors often advise bite victims not to undergo post-bite rabies treatments, unless the squirrel attacked for no apparent reason.”
You gotta be kidding me, “unless the squirrel attacked for no apparent reason”?
What the heck would be “apparent reasons” for squirrel attacks?
Did the child cut in front of the squirrel and got on the swing out of turn?
Okay... What apparent reason was there for this squirrel to attack a little boy on a swing?
Idiots.
I hope that kid gets rabies shots. Even though it’s incredibly rare for squirrels to transmit rabies, the behavior of that particular squirrel is incredibly rare too, and in a way that’s consistent with rabies. Sometimes squirrels will jump on you if they have reason to think you have a nut for them (has happened to me, but with a squirrel I regularly gave peanuts to), but to keep hanging on and biting a screaming child AND then stick around to jump the grown man who arrives to help??? That’s really deranged behavior for a squirrel.
I’ve heard of pretzel logic, but never squirrel reasoning. What, indeed, constitutes good or bad reasoning on the part of a squirrel or squirrel interest group?
Everyone has an embarrassing uncle Harry in the family! LOL
Squirrel probably suffering from post trematic stress from being a spy in Iran.
Touch my fries and you're a dead man!
“...(attacking) squirrel...managed to escape.”
These little creatures sometimes have a condition akin to CJD, where they develop dimentia and their brains turn into a tangled mass of neurons. Cows get something similiar called Mad Cow Disease. It is all caused by prions, or folded protein.
Unfortunately people can get it by eating squirrel brains. In parts of the south this is considered a delicacy and is a deadly habit.
I was bitten by a squirrel that had fallen down the chimney, when I chased it around the house and finally caught it. They are hard to catch, I darn near had to use the Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch on it. That thing was dynamite!
The kid had WMDs - walnuts most delicious.
My picture was taken in the park at Wheatland, Wyoming. Obviously somebody had stopped by Burger King, picked up lunch, and ate in the park. This guy and his buddy were two of the fattest squirrels I’ve ever seen.
Ba$tard, you owe me a new keyboard...
