During a walk, my sister took a photo of squirrels with their tails matted and knotted together. I’ve heard of rat kings, but would this be considered a squirrel king?

There might be some form of survivorship bias in there. We aren't documenting the instances we aren't discovering.

Definitely, but it seems the ones we do find we are generally able to help. I'm sure the ones we do not find pretty much just die.

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.
