War on squirrels!

Squirrels for me is a love/hate relationship. The buggers are so drat annoying-they used to watch and wait(along with scrub jays) until the figs were ripe and then steal them all. Now we individually bag each one to protect them. Amusing when nothing else is happening though. One of my friends has a pack of dogs which regularly catch and eat ground squirrels.


Plantslikebugs: Just curious, but why do you want the tails? do you tie flies?

and even if you DO think it's edited and don't believe that could have happened, it's funny looking at them with a mouthfull of leaves or something... and it's also funny looking at them when it's raining and how they use their tail for protection... etc..
The famous Loch Ness Monster photograph by that surgeoun years ago didn't look edited either. But it WAS. And your photo only shows a squirrell eating peanut butter off of a toothbrush. CAN NOBODY ELSE SEE THIS.

And hey, criminals are smart too. That don't mean I like 'em.

Hey homeslices! *picks up a toothbrush and actually uses it* Check. Me. Out. I'M SO KEWL!!

*starts raining outside* *uses bark for protection* LOOK AT ME!!! LOOK AT MEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'M SO KEWL!!

I didn't give that example to prove they're smart.
stop twisting everything I say!

No, I don't think anyone edited that picture. I was just stating that a picture CAN be edited VERY well and not look edited at all. I'm also saying there's peanut butter on the toothbrush. I guess it's just me, but I don't find an animal eating peanut butter THAT hilarious.

I'm not twisting your words. That's what you did to me over in the pizza topic.

I don't even care anymore. This is RIDICULOUS. If you have ANYTHING more to say to me, IM me. Don't say anything else to me here, because I don't intend to reply to this topic again, and anyone who knows me knows I'm too headstrong to NOT come back at a fire at me in an argument. I'm not the kind to just "walk away" from an argument, so IM me if you have anything else to say to me directly.

ok, but for anyone who comes along and reads it, let me just clarify

ok, I only read the last page here, but from what i see i have to take FTG's side (what a miracle)... Squirrels are smart, nasty little nice guys that need to be KILLED if they come close to your cps... Hey, they make good dog toys too!

and squirrels aren't? they're cute, smart, funny, and amazing.
they can fall 100 feet and walk off unharmed. They're also smart as hell! they can get into almost any bird feeder!
So are bugs.

So can bugs.

So can bugs.

I'm really not seeing a difference.

Name an animal you don't like, Wolf. Do it. I have a surprise for you.
Yea but bugs have EXOSKELETONS... They go crack splatter

Squirrels go splatter crunch

I highly doubt a common squirrel could survive a 100 foot fall... But a glider most probably would.

And flytrapgurl... when a human picks up a toothbrush in the dirt and puts it in his/her mouth... thats not "kewl" or smart, for a human.

Yes pictures can be edited and shaded to suit and exxagerate what that person saw... but it's usually easy to detect

I dont see why you could find maggots, flies, and beetles cute and cuddly FTG

Finch is right. Red squirrels are very rare in this country and if you have lots where you live then you should consider yourself lucky to see them. I haven't seen a red where I live in around 25 years now.

I also heard that in some program in TV.... I think it was the discovery channel before it turned to crap.

well, because I'M in the equation it's no miracle. I always end up being the only one defending animals.

Hey, I always defend the animals. Except when it comes to squirells. They're the only animal other than mosquitos I truly don't like.

the way I look at it, you tresspassed first into their "property" and are now trying to kick them out of their property.
Been a while since I checked up on this anyways... They ARE tresspassing on my property. I was born there and lived there for 20 years. Therefor I have the right to turn them into a red stain on the ground. They are good for nothing pests with Satan in their heart. They are the only animal that is 100% evil and need to be eradicated. The war on squirrels will be won.

I know on the East Coast of the US and S. Missouri, there were grey squirrels. In the midwest(Nebraska at least) we have red squirrels(are they native to the US?) and in some parts of Omaha(Have you seen them Superimposed), I have seen black ones. I do not have any outside plants, but I did have a bale of peat outside(with a tapr protecting it from weather , and I found a walnut, clomplete with surrounding fruit buried within the bale. I figured a squirrel did it. That is my only problem, lol.
