Had to stop watching. Poor little squirrel must have been scared and confused.

Aw, I feel so sorry for him. How do they know that's what happened to him? I feel in that condition, he's vulnerable to all kinds of dangers. Poor little guy....or girl.

Funny? Not in my book! We have squirrels in our backyard and have never seen this behavior. It appears to be animal abuse to me.

We have squirrels, too, and ours have never acted like that. My first thought was that someone did something to the little guy. Not funny at all.

I agree with you both. Watching that made me sad. The poor thing was completely disoriented. Those people that filmed it while laughing the whole time are just cruel. If they know their pumpkins are fermented, why leave them out where squirrels or other animals could eat them, get sick or even die. I don't have patience for those type of people that take amusement in the suffering of animals. Just mean-spirited.

That was nothing but animal abuse! What an awful thing to do, and to film it and laugh at that poor little animal's condition--- that is so NOT COOL.

I won't even watch. I believe the posters above me that watched. Doesn't sound amusing in the least.

I'm glad I read the replies instead of clicking on the link.

It seems it's something only a troll would think is funny.

Didn't look at the video either after the replies. I have seen squirrels appear drunk after eating certain flower bulbs--daffodils or tulips.

Aw, if that happened in my yard a hawk or owl would probably have gotten the poor little thing.

Oh, the poor little thing. We feed the squirrels and chipmunks sunflower seeds and peanuts. I hate to see one who is sick like that. That makes him so vulnerable. I didn't find it funny either.
