We’ve shown you some kind-of-mean anti-squirrel apparatuses in the past, but this one takes it to the next level. Animal rights people, don’t bitch at us, we didn’t do it, we just laughed at it. A lot.

Squirrel Catapult [Random Good Stuff]

When I visited my mate in Nebraska earlier this year she couldn’t really get how I thought squirrels were cute. Just an outsiders perspective I guess. She said almost everyone sees them as a pest over there. Our possums in Australia are cute as and also extremely annoying especially if they get into your roof and decide to set up camp there. I wouldn’t resort to a catapault however to solve the problem.
Report PermalinkI read gizmodo every day almost religiously. Funny or not I really don’t think gizmodo should have posted this video. Cruelty to animals should not be applauded.
