    I hate to be that guy, but they don’t remember where they hide their nuts. All the squirrels are hiding nuts, so they depend on finding eachothers stashes.

      I heard they’re responsible for a majority of oak trees because of this. They’re just out there absent mindedly sowing seeds

      And sometimes they never find the stash and you get a surprise pumpkin plant in your garden and walnut tree in your yard.

    Friend of ours down in London has apparently been having issues with squirrels sneaking in from his balcony and stealing, very specifically, Toffee Crisps.

    Don’t ask me any of the obvious follow-up questions there, I have no idea. But I reckon that squirrel is thriving.
