Purple Squirrel Spotted by Central Pa. Couple
This discussion thread was locked as off-topic by REP (a host of the General Discussion forum).
A couple in central Pennsylvania found a very unusual critter in their backyard a purple squirrel.
Percy Emert said he and his wife, Connie, have cage-like traps in their yard to keep squirrels away from the bird feeders. Percy Emery then releases the squirrels into the woods away from his home but joked that sometimes they make it back to his house before he does.
"I came home (one day recently) and my wife said, 'You're not going to believe it but I saw a purple squirrel in the yard,'" he said Thursday. "So I put out a trap with a couple of peanuts inside."
Before too long, the squirrel came back and found itself in the trap Sunday.
