Those of you who are paying attention will notice I try to include some interesting bits of wildlife information here and there. Those of you who aren't paying attention, this might be your wakeup call Xb this came as a shock (at least to my mate), but squirrels, like almost all rodents, are opportunistic omnivores - meaning they will supplement their diet with meat, if they are presented with a chance for it.
The more you know :3

Myra: Ah ... well, I can promise you this: you had rotten luck seeing Tobur miss his mark like that. He's actually a very effective predator.
Nele: So I hear.
Myra: I'd tell you to give him another chance to show you how it's done, but I wager you've had enough of his tooth work to last you a while.
Nele: Hmh, yeah, thanks. I'm sorry. This must seem so weird.
I've seen two winters and fall apart watching a fox take a marten, while kits in this forest barely even flinch at the subject.
Myra: Oh you've got a bit of a wrong idea there, luv. We're all plenty afraid of getting chewed up, don't you worry.
But I'll be honest with you, if I had any say in the matter, I would hope it was Tobur who has my neck. I know I can trust him to end it as quickly as he possibly can and make sure I don't go to waste.
Nele: No offense. It's still just alien to me.
Myra: That's fair.
Myra: I suppose I might have a different perspective, seeing as Tobur shares when I have a craving.
Nele: That's nice I gue- wait, WHAT!?
You eat ... you ... s-share?
Myra: Well, yes. From time to time. Protection value is not the only comfort I get out of living in Toby's tree, you know.
Nele: H-how do ... how can you ... eat ...
Myra: I listen to what my body says it needs, and ... well ... sometimes I need a little more than a few acorn seeds.
