Yay sneks! I currently only have one but would like a few more. Sneks are great. This one has helped a lot of people get over their snake fears, because she's friendly and cute as gently caress.

Also have this bug. I think he's cute too.

Do you think squirrels would appreciate it if you shelled the nuts for them ahead of time? Or do they like the ones to pick apart the shell the way an autistic person picks apart star trek episode plot holes?
I means, i like the whole cracking the shells systematically and eating the contents as i see fit, but maybe some squirrel has his/her own way of doing things when it comes to his shelled food prep? I'm not gonna tell mr/mrs scquirrel that their hbits are wrong

I think having to shell the nuts themselves gives them a game. Enrichment. My mom feeds a few trees full of squirrels, crows, and jays and tey love the shelled nuts and rice and weird stuff.

Haha thanks I will let her know! She has this giant crow thing she calls Gypsy King, if I can get him to sit still while he visits I'll get a pic of him and his family for you :) She pretty much feeds every critter that comes in the yard, and she tolerates my violent biting gecko too which is great. When I was like four I brought her an entire jar of blister beetles when she was in the shower and she didn't even scream. She's a good mom.

Haha nailed it. If I'm filming, I must be paying attention to her so PET ME. I want to get more video but my lighting sucks so hard that smartphone video gives me a black ball on a dark background. Maybe I can trick her into a lightbox and being cute there.

I lost my mom last week and this thread has been doing an A++ job of keeping my spirits up. I don't feel up to any long stories right now but she was a complete animal lover to her core and it really influenced me. My childhood cats were all rescues & adpotions, and both of my adult cats were abandoned in the neighborhood and rescued by my ex and I. She's got Finn and I've got Fiona, and they are both the most loving cats ever. Rescues of any kind are always the best cats :3:

I also approve heartily of this new, squirrel-based tack this thread is taking.

Bummer news under the spoiler:

Those photos are most likely staged and the frog may have been glued or tied to the beetle. Someone went into more detail here: http://petapixel.com/2015/03/05/a-frog-riding-a-beetle-is-this-a-real-wildlife-photo-or-a-bunch-of-bs/

A bunch of years ago i worked with this crazy Vietnam vet. I was driving him home one night on this super busy road, and i slam on the brakes cuz there's something in the road. It was a scared group of maybe 5 or 6 babby skunks trying to get across to their mom. Carl gets out, stops all 4 lanes of traffic with arm motions and a slew of profanity, takes off his coat and uses it to shepherd the gang of babby skunks to their nervous and waiting mom across the highway. :3

Though, in my defense: Some people go sleep driving on ambien... So at least i only post about squirrels on the internet.

Oh yeah, a few years ago i was watching some nature show about some kind of squirrel that builds little tunnels underground to live in. They chew shed rattlesnake skin into a pulp and rub it into theirs and their babby's fur to confuse hungry rattlesnakes.
At one part, this rattlesnake wasn't falling for it, and was getting really close to the entrance of this squirrel fort, so one of the adult squirrels started shoving rocks and dirt and dust in the snakes face until he slithered off. I was like: "Hell yeah, little squirrel! I'll hold your purse while you whoop that trick!".
Of course i cant remember the name of that show or what kind of squirrels they were.
