THE USELESS INFORMATION MASCOT
It is estimated that millions of trees are planted by forgetful squirrels.
Squirrels can climb trees faster than they can run on the ground.
Squirrels may live fifteen or twenty years in captivity, but their life span in the wild is often only about one year. They fall prey to disease, malnutrition, predators, cars, and humans.
A squirrel cannot contract or carry the rabies virus.
