kids can be so eager to get help, even if they're not supposed to be in the match

Kind of need the quester to be a 32yo now

They have the collective body of human knowledge LITERALLY in their pockets...and they have to email a scientist to ask questions? I'd just respond by sending them a link to Google. 😂

Just don't let them talk to RFK about squirrels. The answers might be upsetting.

For a group of adults yes I would. That is in fact our whole program. You need a specific scientist? We will find them.

😀

If I had known there was a field of squirrelology, I would have changed majors. Squirrels were among my first childhood drawings. Unfortunately I don't think my drawing skills have improved!

The joys of being a grandfather to eight, knowledge on demand. I will know they are teens when they realise I made it all up. Until then, there is still some magic in our world. My school days with my pet dinosaur I called Rubble. 😀

But the danger is real for them. If you don't reply quickly they're quite likely to lose interest forever.

Always good advice, frankly.

Squirrels are cool. www.g2photoworks.com/nature-and-w...

This isn’t a professional diagnosis,but “squirrel” & “respond quick” are primary indicators your kid is ADHD. Squirrels are our spirit animal, & we leave everything to the last minute.

Squirrelology is a vast and fascinating field. I recommend looking into the program at The University of the Oaks. Ask for Professor Chipndale.

One squirrel at a time.

I'll talk to anyone about squirrels! I'm a computer scientist, tho; I don't know anything sciency about squirrels.

This could have been me last summer when relaxing on the porch I heard a huge screeching commotion in a tree in the cemetery across the street. As I looked, a squirrel came running at me full bore with a yellow goldfinch in its mouth, before veering away and careening off. I am STILL STARTLED.

Given the lack of context this was easily the oddest post I’ve read today. 10/10, no notes.

I need to know if the scientist reminded the kid it’s “quickly”

Shouldn't they be ferrying insults between the bird and the snake?

Maybe Elon hired squirrels to run the data centres and like always, realised he doesn't know a dam thing about what he's doing.

That’s not a child, that’s the librarian whose lunch keeps getting stolen by the squirrels sneaking through the book return slot.

When my son was in grade school they literally assigned a paper that required "talking to an expert." So the topic had to be chosen from the experts we knew.

No that’s Clarke Griswold’s dad

Who needs Wikipedia when there's a potential to get answers directly from the source!! YAY to Squirrel Scientists...?!?! LOL

🤣

Well as a maths teacher i knew several scientists Unfortunately non were squirrels

Hehehe I'm glad, cos I'm a sucker for cephalopods! ^^

Its the squirrel liberation army!
