Looks like the squirrel terrorists have some company
"OLYMPIA, Washington -- A fierce group of raccoons has killed 10 cats, attacked a small dog and bitten at least one pet owner who had to get rabies shots, residents of Olympia say."

Oh no! Who will they recruit next? Opossums? Armadillos?
Seriously though, where I grew up people actually go coon hunting and it's a well known fact that they can take out a hound, especially if the raccoon gets the dog into a stream. Yes, they can actually drown a dog.
This sounds like a post for Odinn7............................

Psycho Killer Raccoons! If someone could find a pretext for getting them on a plane, we'd have a plot for a movie.
Or on a space ship!!! With Sigourny Weaver! Or try killer sand worms on a luxery liner! Or those giant south american toads in a waterpark! Or rabid baboons on a rollercoaster! Or giant bunny rabbits on a ranch! (oh...thats already been done...Dam!)
When the dump that is their food source is paved to create a new shopping mall, a group of mutant raccoons move in, terrorizing some teens who broke in late one night during a holiday weekened.....
They're getting ready to go to war with the armadillos. I love to see people freak out when they find out that when frightened or cornered armadillos can leap about three feet straight up in the air. That seems to spook them almost as much as the news that they can carry leprosy (but are unlikely to infect humans).
Raccons vs. Armadillos: get your Critter Armageddon on!!!
Oooooh, Raccoons vs. Armadillos on a Plane.
When a group of rabid terrorist raccoons take over a plane, bent on destruction, it's up to Samuel L. Armadillo to take them down. . .

Squirrels are now attacking our cultural icons:

Squirrel kamikaze attack. They're targetting opea singers. I'm not sure if I should support the people or the squirrels...
Kamikaze squirrels, the world's toughest music critics.
Just as long as they leave Anna Netrebko alone.....really hot Russian opera singer.
Could this be part of the plot? Some kind of secret message to the rodent population?

More raccoon mayhem

Raccoons, opening a new front in the attack on our civilization by trying to wreck the education system?
And that squirrel may have a future in porn. Or baseball since he probably isn't on steroids.
I think this whole squirrel thing is going nowhere. Stop your battle with squirrels Odinn7 before they really get upset. : )

Scott is a squirrel running dog!

Don't mind me I'm just having a ball with Odinn7's love of squirrels.

Scott...you need therapy.
The other day I was following a pickup and the guy had a stuffed squirrel laying in a death pose on that part of the bumper where the trailer hitch goes.
Odinn7 after the whole Gigli thing you're just now figuring out that Scott needs therapy?

Actually Trek, I have known this but I was making the statement in hopes that the poor man would come to realize that he needs help.
What's up doc ?

And with that photo, the words "a squirrel's nuts" takes on a whole new meaning.
Well, the squirells have turned some quislings:

Well, Ed I guess there are traitors in every war.
To add to the small mammal paranoia thread. Opossums as agents provacteurs.

I hope the dog is ok.
The article indicated so, no word on the opossum.

From Yahoo news on Friday
It wasn't "Snakes on a Plane," but an Austrian Airlines jet made an unscheduled stop Friday after a passenger sneaked a hamster aboard and the rodent escaped. The flight from Palma de Mallorca, Spain, to the southern Austrian city of Graz made a stop in Innsbruck so officials could search for the hamster and make sure it didn't gnaw through any wiring, the airline said.
It said the flight was diverted after a passenger notified the crew that he had brought a hamster aboard and had lost track of it. Passengers were ordered off the plane, and some were taken by bus to Graz. It was not immediately clear how many people were aboard.
By midafternoon, a search of the aircraft still had not turned up any sign of the hamster, authorities said.
Austrian Airlines said the jet would remain grounded until the hamster was found "because it can't take off that way for safety reasons."
As one of the self appointed guardians against the tree rodent takeover of our nation, I feel I must put up this:

They are coming back for another round, and this time they are postal.
-Ed
This is not Halloween joke, but, apparently, the squirrels are now after the U.S. mail. For the first time in its 230 year history, a postal carrier was attacked by an attack squirrel. This happened on Monday, October 30, in Oil City, Pennsylvania, when a female postal carrier was attacked and bitten by a squirrel. No word as to whether the attack squirrel was a male squirrel.
On a more serious side, when an animal attacks, there is the possbililty that it is rabid. The squirrel, which was killed, is being tested for rabies, and the female male carrier is already undergoing the series of rabies shots.
Note that the sneaky rodent didn't attack head on. It waited until the postwoman had her back turned. Never turn your back on a squirrel!
