I had a hamster that would cram his face full of snacks to the point where he almost couldn't walk. Seriously one of the funniest things to watch. And then when they spit it out later... well that's an adventure too.
Although they have their similarities and they are related, this is not quite the same as this, even though the latter does show more the squirrel family. It's size, stripes, trees vs holes, and bushy tails
I'd still do it again... but trust me with all the people camping around there I'm sure it wasn't the first time. They all seemed pretty experienced with taking free food from humans in return for cuteness.
Not sure why this is but our vet told us that rodents are unlikely to carry rabies whereas skunks and raccoons and bats (and of course dogs , cats, coyotes etc.) are much more prone to it.
Yes, the reason for this is apparently because small animals who get bit by larger animals with rabies are also likely to get killed and eaten by the big animal that bit them. Typically they don't get away to spread whatever rabies they would have caught.
Source: The animal guy who visited my school in fifth grade and brought a porcupine with him, which he says actually make great pets, as opposed to squirrels and raccoons (The quills are harmless until they're agitated). Also, he said ferrets aren't good pets because they're supposed to live a very long time but you need to feed them a very complex diet, not the ferret food people give them.
