Looking back at my response to Monster, I think I was unnecessarily aggressive....sorry about that.
I really don't find that sort of stuff funny generally. That doesn't mean I think people who laugh at it are bastards who like to stamp on squirrels' heads for shits and giggles. I was genuinely a little shocked when I saw the video. I saw the title and thought, nah, it's not what it sounds like...oh shit, yes it is. |

At the risk of putting the thread back on track, what happened to the second baby squirrel?

It was alive when I dropped it off at the rescue lady the next day - but it was not in as good shape as squirrel #1. I'm not sure to what extent it was injured in the fall (from red circle in pic), but its little nose was bleeding and it was not as active or interested in food/water.
It was a good learning experience for the kids.

I wanted to strap the little squirrelies to a model rocket and fly them to the squirrel lady, but this thread took all the fun out of it for me.

bump.
funny thread. also, this morning, I ousted the squirrel. It had been encroaching on our attic storage area thru that hole in jinx's picture ( red circle ) I put sturdy 1/2" wire screen in the holes that were affording the squirrel access to our attic this morning. then I lugged the 50lb shop vac up 3 flights from the basement to the attic, and cleaned up the tragic mess the little bastard had made in our storage attic. (s)he still has access to the small area in the eaves to shelter, but can no longer enter our actual attic thru that hole. I may still seal that exterior entry point.....but i don't relish climbing an aluminum ladder that is rated for 250 lbs in cold weather. maybe in the spring when I hopefully weigh something close to that...and the aluminum is less brittle due to sub freezing temps.
