Odd News

Do you remember that little animated squirrel from movie Ice Age. How cute it was. Just jumping everywhere around, looking for the nuts and for the right place for it. And that winking. Was not that neat? But in case you do not know, the real squirrels are the same. Only difference is that squirrels are trying to be close to us. They are able to find the right place for their nests anywhere. The best place is your house. Everywhere where is some food, there is a good place. So be careful when you will be opening your refrigerator next time. Do not be surprised when you find small squirrel nest inside of your car. There is no food, but it is warm in there. Places like parks or woods are not enough cool for modern squirrels, they want luxury. Only problem is that they can be dangerous. They can bite, scratch and jump like crazy. There are some of them who are not so clever, so they are looking for the oddest places you can imagine, like engines, transformers, or in electricity. Of course some of them are killed sometimes, but it is not significant for other squirrels. They are trying to do the same again and again. Nobody knows why they pick up these places. Maybe there is some smell or sign, which they think is something different. I just do not believe that they are so stupid. They can not be.
