good thing it isn;t your hand, don't they teach kids today about RABIES?? it's not "12 painful shots in the stomach" anymore but I think it's still some annoyingly large series of (painful for those of us who have trouble with the preservative?) shots in the upper arm.
still, widdle potentailly rabid woodland critters are sooo cute.
I've noted that to get a squirrel to be trusting enough to take food from a human directly, they have to be pretty healthy and well-trained. Sick animals hide from humans. So, yeah, rabies, but I doubt it seriously in this case.
I had some trained squirrels in my backyard at one point. If I tried harder I could have more again here in Pgh - there are some easily-recognizable critters I could work on, but I don't have the time. (We've got a bloodline of black squirrels around here - dad and some offspring. Really different.)
