This is a video of a robotic spy squirrel built by John Downer Productions (previously: some of their other spy animals) capturing the behavior of real squirrels as they attempt to steal each other’s nuts. Did you know that every autumn the average squirrel hides 10,000 nuts, and has such

This is a video of a group of skittish squirrels (aren’t they all?) outside the window of appropriately named Youtuber Squirrels at the Window being treated to a fancy charcuterie board covered with various nuts and fruit. That looks nice, although I would be disappointed if I just paid $28

These are several shots and a video of the removal of 700 pounds of acorns that a pair of acorn woodpecker stashed in the wall of a Santa Rosa, California home. Nick Castro of Nick’s Extreme Pest Control was actually inspecting for mealworms when he discovered the nut hoard, and

I’ve always wanted to build a cool Rube Goldberg machine but every time I try I get frustrated after the first five minutes of nothing working right (mostly due to my misunderstanding of physics) and then rage-quit and Godzilla stomp through all my hard poor quality work. This is a
