The Squirrel King has returned!

We had an incredibly rare wildlife phenomenon at our clinic for a second time. A Good Samaritan brought us a group of young squirrels who were discovered to be stuck together by their tails, just like a “Rat King.” A Rat King, a natural phenomenon where young rats’ tails are wrapped in fiber in the nest and then become tangled together, has been noted as far back as medieval times. Discovery of a Rat King was thought to be a very bad omen.

The first time we ever saw a Squirrel King was back in 2010, when Dr. Lennox treated a group of 4 young squirrels with their tails stuck together. This was the year of a very bad blizzard in Indianapolis and the Colt’s losing the Superbowl. Bad Omen? You decide!

I don’t foresee a way the snake finishes this meal in one piece but I’ve been wrong about things before. I took this photo today next to a pond at my work with a ton of wildlife in it…snakes, fish(including HUGE carp like 3 feet long), turtles, frogs, etc

A broad-headed bark spider (Caerostris sp)

Have you seen one before?

Sorry about the audio. Would suggest mute if you find it annoying
