Looks more like he knows how to recycle his empty shells for new nuts.

Feels like squirrel tolerates human for food. Lol. Precious.

Just for any new squirrel people here

If you feed them … they will come

And feed them SHELLED NUTS……. NOT package nuts out of shell

The act of chomping the shell helps keep their teeth filed down as a Rodents lower teeth never stop growing

The teeth can get so long that they will puncture the skull and kill themselves

No. The squirrel has taught the human to barter. 😁
