Original Note:
The owner had a popular instagram account about it, which prompted complaints, which animal control had to investigate, as it's illegal to keep it as a pet. The bite necessitated the euthanization for a rabies test. The owner has raised $180K off the squirrel's death. https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2024/11/04/peanut-the-squirrel-mark-longo-new-york-euthanized-pet/76043660007/
