1.In June 2005, a woman was attacked in her own living room by a crazed squirrel in Passau, Germany. The rodent jumped in through the window and sunk its teeth into the woman. Whilst fleeing the scene the squirrel bit a builder and a 72-year-old man, before the pensioner managed to kill it with his crutch.
2. A pine cone shortage in the Russian town of Lazo resulted in hungry squirrels biting a stray dog to death in November 2005. The unfortunate dog was barking at the squirrels when a swarm of them suddenly surrounded him and attacked.
3. A four-year-old child eating a muffin was repeatedly bitten in a California park by a peckish squirrel in September 2006. The toddler was rushed to hospital for tetanus shots after fears were raised that the loony squirrel had rabies.
4. In November a caring animal lover was assaulted by an injured squirrel he had rescued just days before in a local park. Nicknamed Elvis, the squirrel viciously bit both hands of nature writer Ernie Gordon. After a round of tetanus shots and antibiotics Mr Gordon parted ways with Elvis the squirrel.
5. In September 2005 a Salisbury teenager was pounced upon by a demented squirrel as she bent over to pick up a bag she dropped. The animal bit her left forefinger and refused to let go despite frantic efforts by the teenager. Her mother Alanna Cooper said, "Lorna swung the squirrel around to try and get it off but it had a firm lock on her finger and just wouldn’t let go.” It took four other girls and a woman to wrestle the squirrel off the girl before it gave in and made good its escape up a nearby tree.
