Those moviestar squirrels have inspired me to do one of our periodic squirrel news searches to see if there are any other new sciurid scoops of note, and there are two. Story #1: She said they heard Kaleb screaming and looked up to see the squirrel chasing him as he rode toward their car. "It chased me 50 or 60 yards and jumped up on my tire a few times, and whenever I got off I kicked it, and it bit me," Kaleb said. "They told me to get in the car.… I watched it, and it was attacking my bike." Which leads me to question how good this news in Story #2 really is: Good News from Bhimashankar: Giant Squirrels Thrive.
