Why You Should Not Take Selfies With Squirrels

Actually I'm sure there's many reasons, but this one's as good as any. Associated Press tells us that a 17-year-old boy decided he needed to take a selfie with a squirrel. The kid says he seemed like a friendly little fellow. The teen went up to the squirrel, which was sitting on a railing in a park. He was able to get a picture of the two of them on his cell phone, but apparently the noise and the flash were a bit too much for the squirrel, who panicked and hid under the boy's shirt and hung onto his back. Fortunately dropping to the ground and rolling a bit was enough for the squirrel to crawl out and run away and neither man nor beast was harmed. But before running away the squirrel took a selfie standing over a fallen teenager. DB
