When I was a kid I fed a squirrel by hand in my Great Grandma's backyard. I assumed it must be "tame" so I tried to pick it up. It bit a hole right through my finger... I don't think I got a rabies shot for that, after yesterday's Reddit ride I fee like I dodged a bullet.

Extremely rare for a squirrel to have rabies

Eat a sandwich in certain parts of Central Park and the squirrels will just walk up and start watching you.
