Interesting tidbit about squirrels

I just though this was an extremely random yet interesting Discovery News article about squirrels.

According to a recent study, all squirrels are part of a social network, kind of like the six degrees of separation but with squirrels it's only three degrees. My favorite part about the finding is that it appears squirrels have other squirrel friends -- they don't just hang out with any random squirrel on the street. Looks like they're not as brainless as I thought.

I know this is pretty quirky but doesn't it make you look at squirrels a little differently?
