A guy raises a squirrel for 7 years and builds a social media following with it. Internet haters report him to the Department of Environmental Conservation for “exploitation of the squirrel.”

DEC investigators show up to “rescue” the squirrel which bites one of them in the process.

Following standard protocol after an animal bite, the DEC puts the squirrel to death because it may have rabies. 🤦🏾‍♂️
