Melissa Brandts set up her camera on a timer to photograph herself and her husband in front of Lake Minnewanka, but this little camera whore had different ideas for the picture. Fortunately, it turned out kinda nice-looking. [UPDATE: Make your own crasher squirrel picture using our advanced crasher squirrel technology. View Image ›

Bloody Squirrels

British TV personality Phillip Schofield is at it again. This time he’s tweeting that squirrels almost chewed through some wires in his house and he took a picture of it. Not to sound mean or anything, but am I missing something, or do British people have a fundamentally different idea of what’s interesting? View Image ›

Pick a side of the debate, then post an image of a cute or an ugly rodent to justify your claim. Hopefully we can tip the scales one way or the other and sort this mess out once and for all.

Sugar Bush Squirrel

A site devoted to thousands of photos of a Florida woman’s pet squirrel, in costume. Kelly Foxton took in the baby squirrel in 2003, and after a year of gaining its trust, began training the squirrel to pose in patriotic photos. The resulting web site is…fascinating. Read More ›
