Have you seen the white squirrel?
You will never be the same. He comes back to us now... in our time of need...

There's a reason you don't see too many white squirrels.
We called him Whitey.

^ that was but a decoy... the white squirrel filled a sock with nougat and distracted the hawk... notice how the hawk looks frustratingly off camera... that's because the real white squirrel is scurrying into the distance waving a middle paw in the hawk's general direction...

Is the Black Squirrel the white squirrel's nemesis?

London, Ontario, is the home of black squirrels? I think not.

They can be buddies sometimes - racism in squirrel land does not exist!

I indeed have seen the squirrel. I hit a piebald whitetail deer with my 72 Bronco short-box one day, that was a real treat except for the hitting part.. just ran right out in front of me. I hit a nice 6 point whitetail buck with a 69 Bronco short-box I had as well, with an 8000 lb winch on the front. He was just nosing back and forth right across the center line of the highway, completely oblivious to my approach not even looking up from the doe trail he was scenting, not once. She was in heat. That was unfortunate. He was in full rut. Whitetail bucks throw caution to the wind when they're in full rut, it's like their instincts are overcome by testosterone.
I like squirrels, I stopped killing them in my early years because I didn't care for the effort/yield ratio.

I detest! The black squirrel is bullying the white squirrel.. They are not buddies. Look more closely.

Indeed. Gray, white and black co-exist in utter peace and harmony in the realm of squirrels. They seem not to care as they chase and interbreed with nary a qualm. Until someone throws a peanut into the mix. Then the naughty side of squirrels comes out. Peanuts reveal the ugly underneath of the squirrel world...
...use caution...

This squirrel is praying for the dog's soul. They're so cute when they're theological...
