Today at 1130, red squirrel (Tamiasciurus hudsonicus) #10, "Sonia", was captured and relocated to the Near Island Squirrel Sanctuary as part of the ongoing efforts of the Cliffside Squirrel Relocation Project. An eleventh squirrel was observed in the area, so the trap has been reset.
Readers may be thinking that The Yellow Porcupine leads a sad, pathetic life in which he has nothing to do but obsessively trap squirrels. Nothing could be farther from the truth. TYP leads an exciting life full of fulfilling activities and enviable accomplishments that is only heightened by his squirrel trapping efforts.
Why trap the little buggers, you ask? Well, they moved into one of our sheds over the winter and made a major mess, including chewing through an outside wall, resulting in considerable water damage. If Ah had a .22, I'd be a-eatin' 'em, not trappin' 'em.
This post has nothing whatsoever to do with Sonia Sotomayor, Supreme Court nominee, Barack Obama, waterboarding, mancow, Matthew Erich "Mancow" Muller, Dick Cheney, Newt Gingrich, Rachel Maddow, Keith Oberman, countdown, huckabee, nasa, space shuttle, taliban, hamas, clinton.
