When did City utilities start employing squirrels? Got to admit it's a bit genius

The electric company should give him a snow-clearing contract. He probably works for peanuts.

It's a long-distance view of a squirrel on an electrical wire that's got inches of snow on top of it. Squirrel is bumping the snow off a few inches at a time. Took me a WHILE to figure that wasn't an insect on a frosted window.

I honestly think it knows exactly what it’s doing. If he runs over the snow he risks falling. This is slower but safer and probably still faster than moving on the ground. It even looks like he has a rhythm going.

This reminds me of the original Lemmings game. When you deployed the tunneler and he just kept going.

That is a telephone cable btw not power, and squirrels are the cause of a huge amount of problems. If you look at the very beginning of the clip you will see a black cylinder. That is a closure meant to protect the wires from the elements. The problem is the squirrels love to make those things home. I’ve climbed many poles to open those things and have them jump out at me.

I have a love hate relationship with squirrels. I love them because they have made me a lot of money in overtime, I hate them because they have been the reason I have been forced to work a lot of overtime.
