Dead Squirrel
A Duxbury resident wrote a letter to our local paper today complaining that she had found a dead squirrel that had been choked to death with a plastic twist tie. She declaimed the murder and called for the culprit to reveal him/herself. I don’t particularly care for squirrels, but I share her concern for people who would murder any animal in such a cruel way. But, here’s my question. How the hell did someone chase down a squirrel in order to choke it to death? I’ve got 3 dogs that can do the 100 in 5 seconds and they can’t catch a squirrel! Is there really someone in Duxbury who is quick enough to run down a squirrel? Who just happens to carry a supply of plastic twist ties? My admiration and awe to such a person!
