The video has amassed more than 28,000 views on Twitter and has sent the internet into a meltdown. A social media user enquired about what kind of squirrel is it. To which a user wrote, "I think it's an Abert's Squirrel." Another user wrote, "Looks like this squirrel is looking for a treat (and maybe used to getting fed by humans). The squirrel is adorable, but it's not a great idea to encourage a wild animal to approach humans who may harm it (or vice versa)!"
"A really curious squirrel could have been a fun pet if it left the electric wires in peace," a user commented. "Cheeky Squirrel - wonderful interaction wild little critter and family," the fourth commented.
"Ooooh I love squirrels, but they never jump in my pocket," the fifth expressed.
Meanwhile, a video of a pet marmot in which the rodent reacted curiously and asked the owner to resume petting is going viral on the internet.
A marmot is shown relaxing and being caressed by its owner at the beginning of the 18-second clip. The ground squirrel's pet owner gradually stops patting it. The rodent reacts quickly and then displays surprise. It requests that the owner resume petting and performs the action with its right hand. In response to the cute desire, the owner resumes patting the marmot, giving it newfound happiness.
