And if there's no one around to hear, do they make a noise?Do squirrels fall out of trees when they die?
No, they lay there on a branch on their back, with their little legs sticking up in the air and little cartoon X's over their eyes. lolDo squirrels fall out of trees when they die?
Well, what if they were on the ground to begin with?
If they are in a tree when they die, then yes, they will fall to the ground, unless a limb catches them on the way to the ground.
They lose muscle control like we would, and therefore, have no choice but to fall.
no, they drift straight off to squirrel heaven
They tend not to climb up trees to die!
But i'm sure if they did they would fall ~ but they wouldn't care
they would be DEAD.
Yes if they die on the tree.
of course!
why would they always die sitting in a tree!!
Nah, they go to the squirrel grave yard (on the ground). They know its coming
Or maybe they just fade away like Jedi-Squirrels
it would explain alot wouldnt it?
Are they burried with their nuts?
Don't know, but I loved fullstops(?) answer.
only if they are in them at the time
Unless they get caught in a branch or something...
Only when they've been shot...
some do some dont rigour mortise
no, they go to squirrell heaven
only when shot
No but they do if a golfer forgets his Right Guard...
pmsl what a great question, i have no idea.
good question
I bet they land on their feet, like cats
the fall off of tires when they die

Which fruit would be the most effective at knocking squirrels out of trees?
I am currently trying cherries and they are not working.Which fruit would be the most effective at knocking squirrels out of trees?
lol personally I'd use a rock but if it has to be fruit use a winter pear....they're the right size shape and weight so the moment that squirrel gets hit...BAM!!!!Which fruit would be the most effective at knocking squirrels out of trees?
Try bananas, they work just like boomerangs, so you might get two squirrels with one throw.
I bought a Craftsman Squirrel Knocker at Sears.
Before that I was throwing broccolli
pineapple
If i was like you (nasty because you are knocking innocent squirrels out of their natural habitat; what have they ever done to you), i would suggest something. But because im not, im not going to suggest anything. Squirrel slayer!
why would you even do this...it sounds....well, sad
raisins
Don't be silly - try rocks instead - it is a waste of good fruit doing that!
Walnuts. You can throw the fruit at them because its not good to eat anyway then later go retrieve the nut.
some people can't take a joke*sigh*
man you are funny!.
try coconut or watermelon
Lemons are just the right size.
Pineapples...
watermelon
kiwi? Is this a riddle?
frozen grapefruits. frozen Elton Johns.
You are a slayer.
Well of course cherries wouldnt work, try Watermelons, Pineapples, Grapefruits, Cocanuts, James' giant peach and if veggies count- Pumpkins, big courgettes and the enormous turnip
:-)
hahah .... this question is my favourite so far ...
Try apple, orange and lime. You need a bit of weight and cherries are too light. ... hahaha ... Be kind though :pcartridge

Why don't squirrels ever fall out of trees?
The claws allow them to grip tree trunks, and the tail aids in balance.Why don't squirrels ever fall out of trees?
Cause they're pretty well adapted to trees.
They can hold onto em well with their claws, their big tail provides balance, and I'm guessing their brains also evolved to match well, giving them whatever behavior will be best suited to not fall.Why don't squirrels ever fall out of trees?
Oh yeah they do, especially the babies, I've seen some dead babies that have fallen from trees :-(
haha I think cause they have really big claws...... maybe....
cause their cool
cuz they can fly

Cutting down trees with squirrels nesting?
I live in UK.
I have a 40ft row of conifers in my garden which have been a squirrel home for several years. Unfortunately I must have these trees cut down. I am really worried about having to evict the squirrels. When do they have their young, would it be around now? What will happen to them all? Will they have to fight with other squirrels locally to find somewhere new to nest? OK, I know they're only squirrels, but they've never done me any harm and I do worry about the little guys. Please advise!Cutting down trees with squirrels nesting?
The Grey Squirrel is not protected,so you can cut down your trees as any young will be taken by the parents to another safe place.
But please check that no late breeding birds have a nest in them,or else you could be in trouble.Cutting down trees with squirrels nesting?
Squirrels give birth twice a year, in January-April and
in August-September. There are 2-4 babies per litter. The
babies are self-sustaining at about 12-14 weeks of age and will leave
the nest area in search of their own territory
If you want them to remain in or around your garden, put up some nesting boxes elsewhere before you cut down the trees also put out food for them, if food is plentiful and nesting is easy they will stay around.
Also see:www.squirrels.org this may answer some other questions or give information you need
If they are grey,you are allowed to shoot them.people are also starting to eat them these days.we need to save the red,get rid of the aggressive grey.bon appetite
I have seen a couple of young squirrels running around my garden, presume they have finished by now. You are so kind to worry about them, i also like squirrels.
I think they will be able to find another home. They can still mate now, just make sure you don't cut down the trees while they are in it.
Grey squirrels are vermin only worry about red squirrels
as long as they are grey squirrels then there is no problem. Any young will be long gone by now anyway.
i hope they find a new home but you could ask a wildlife rescue for the answer to your question they would no

Why do trees depend on squirrels?
Trees do depend on squirrels to take acorns, seeds, and pinecones (depending on the tree) and help scatter them so that there is a possibility that new trees will grow.
This is one of the reasons how tree species survive.
But other than that, squirrels may eat away at the bark of the tree, which may be harmful.Why do trees depend on squirrels?
Squirrels do plant the seeds by burying them for later use, and then they may forget where they put them.Why do trees depend on squirrels?
They DON'Tdepend on them, ultimately, but sometimes the squirrels will get nuts out of the tree and then drop them on the ground, losing them by accident.. The nuts may then grow into new trees.
they dont dumb@#!$
