“Squirrel eat squirrel world”

Cannibal squirrels? Could it be possible? Somewhere in the southern hemisphere there used to be an ancient tribe of squirrels called the Ponce and legend has it they believed heavily in rituals such as chanting, ceremonies, and tree worship. From deciphering their tree drawings it has been determined that on the day of a blue moon a great celebration was held full of these rituals. One included acting out a legendary tale where the big creature, man, breaks into the forest and tries to eat the squirrel. The innocent animal is saved by the moon which renders the man speechless and motionless with its beauty. The first Squirrel Historians who analyzed this story misinterpreted it and published their false findings with the title, “It’s a squirrel eat squirrel world.” I’m here to set the story straight and tell you that dogs may be capable of cannibalism or even people but not the honorable squirrel. May the ghost of the Ponce squirrels finally rest in peace.
