I was in Loring Park in downtown Mpls with some bread, I was feeding the squirrels and got more than I bargained for - they mobbed me (like, 15 of them, no kidding) and one climbed right up my leg with his little sharp velcro claws, up to my waist! I dropped the bag and walked away (quickly!!) and the whole crowd of them came after me! That, I think, is TOO tame. Damn ghetto squirrels.
also, I was in Toronto last weekend and saw many black squirrels. They're also common in Baltimore, I hear... near my house there lives an albino squirrel.
Here's some "winged rats" AND a "tree rat" (one of the black ones in TO.)
