Squirrels Kill Dog

[dgridley]

Squirrels have bitten to death a stray dog which was barking at them in a Russian park, local media report.

Passers-by were reportedly too late to stop the attack by the black squirrels in a village in the far east, which reportedly lasted about a minute.

They are said to have scampered off at the sight of humans, some carrying pieces of flesh..

Poor dog.

If they can attack something of that size I just pray to god they dont attack a baby or child

that's awfully sad for the dog. then again, locals said that they dont have anything to eat...i didnt know squirrels could be so dangerous

I've always had my eye on the Black Squirrels gang, after this story gets out I wonder if some people will start calling their friends squirrels instead of dogs....who let the squirrels out..squeak squeak squeak squeak squeak...then again maybe not :hehe:

I guess it just goes to show that all types of animals can be dangerous when pushed to extremes. What a shame. They are such a beautiful animal... I have never seen or heard of them before. As for that poor poor dog... he too was probably hungery.

Man, those Russian squirrels are apparently way tougher than those we have here. I've always thought squirrels are rather cute.

Yeah, there's some University here in TX that has a whole swarm/pod/gaggle (?*) of white squirrels. I'll see if I can find the link.
