Squirrels Kill and Eat Dog
Local media in Russia have reported how a gang of aggressive squirrels have bitten to death a stray dog which was barking at them in a park. Witnesses to the attack told of how the squirrels ran off with lumps of flesh when humans approached.
The attack was witnessed by three local people in the parkland in the centre of Lazo, a village in the Maritime Territory. Komsomolskaya Pravda newspaper quotes one of the witnesses saying "They literally gutted the dog,"
A scientist in the region claims that squirrels without sources of protein might attack birds' nests but attacking a dog is as yet unheard of adding "The little beasts are agitated because they have nothing to eat".
