I was walking through a park today with my camera and took some squirrel pictures. Tonight I was looking though my days shots and noticed the tag. Who tags squirrels? And why?

| Does seem unusual to tag squirrels, but nobody does it for fun! Your local naturalists/conservation officers could give you more details. Try writing a letter to the editor in your local paper and see what response you get. |

It;s just a fashion statement. All the cool squirrels are doing it. ;-]

| I think it's Slippy's doing. He catches them, gets the big stapler, punches their ear, and lets them go. |

| I was wondering if Slippy might have a hand in this... |

| That's his bluetooth headset. He was going nuts trying to hold his phone while searching for food. |

Pun intended? I hope not, since that was really acorny joke if it was. You'd have to be pretty squirrely to post something like that.

| It's not Slippy's. His squirrels are easily recognizable because they are genetic mutants. |

There's really no need for that - I can tell you where they ALL migrate to - MY HOUSE. We have more darned squirrels than you would believe, and they destroy everything including bird feeders, planters and our deck!

With a metal tag on the ear of each squirrel, they can be easily gathered using supermagnets suspended from helicopters.
