      I wouldn’t be surprised to learn those are AI generated images. Both photos look nearly identical just with different disposables being held by the squirrel.

      Even if they’re real, what about all the other garbage squirrels gnaw on in a city environment? Furthermore, what about all those starving birds out there who couldn’t eat because these bastards keep eating all the bird seed in bird feeders? That’s the real story here.
