Think you have a squirrel problem? Squirrels kill dog

We get all sorts of emails from people complaining about squirrels in their feeders. Feel relieved that your squirrels are only eating a bit of your birdseed and not your dog!!

bloody-squirrelSM.jpg In Lazo (Russia), a village in the Maritime Territory, A "big" stray dog was barking at black squirrels in the branches overhead when a number of them suddenly descended and attacked. In about a minute, "They literally gutted the dog," local journalist Anastasia Trubitsina told Komsomolskaya Pravda newspaper. One local surmised that they attacked because there were no pine cones in the forest this year.

...and you thought you had a squirrel problem!
