Actually squirrels do in rarer cases eat meat. ^^

I'd considered the cani-squirrel idea before pasting, but they are named "squirrel".  This gives me the impression of a certain try of behavior where with boomrats, and muffulo are entirely new, so I don't have this expectation.

Really my first thought on seeing this was to kill it as it was an aberration.

I have to admit, I read this topic title as way worse with my dirty, dirty mind.

Huh... I would have never guessed.  The squirrels around here seem to have more than enough to eat year round.  I've never seen them get really aggressive with anything than each other.
