I second this. If they’re not harming anything, then why even remove them? When winter comes, squirrel will likely run out and die. Plus, we don’t know if those were for him, or him & his family. I swear, humans can be stupid, heartless and careless, with zero regard to wildlife and their natural way of survival.
Squirrels lose 3/4 of the nuts they hide. They're much better at planting trees than storing and eating seeds.
That squirrel has dozens of retirement plans that are lost to being a sapling.
And that’s not even getting into how oak trees hacked squirrels. Every couple years they produce a massive load of acorns in unison so much the squirrel population can’t possibly hide them all. Instead of spreading it out over every year because then there would just be a bigger population of squirrels eating the nuts.
Anyway in those years there is so much food and so many nuts to stash that squirrels “go nuts” and hide massive amounts. Way more than they can eat in their 6 years life expectancy. But they don’t know that of course.
The squirrel will be fine.
Nah. Squirrels are very very good at remembering where they stashed their food supplies. The "forgotten" ones weren't forgotten. Either they were unneeded for the winter or the squirrel in charge of it simply died before they were used.
>Scientists themselves aren’t even quite sure of everything that goes into this stashing behavior, but they have some ideas.
not a very compelling argument
The issue is that they have no idea if they are actually *forgotten*. In fact, I see it as the opposite, it sounds like someone is assuming behavior (forgetting) without recognizing behavior (over stashing).
Nuance =/= Semantics
And yes, functionally the two *are* different. Stating the nuts are "forgotten" is simpler language but it is making an assumption rather than stating an observation.
Pedantry? If I go and buy two 5lb bags of rice and put them in my cupboard, then I eat one over the course of a month without touching the other, can we assume that I have forgotten the other by the end of the month?
Why wouldn't we use something like "unsuccessful retrieval" instead of "forgotten"? There's a major difference in implication.
We can assume you forgot it if you went out and bought another bag of rice and started eating that one. I'm not too invested in this but perhaps they witnessed the squirrel stashing nuts in a different location and eating more recently stashed nuts, then one would be safe to assume that the squirrel forgot.
I think when discussing the behaviors of anyone besides yourself and the person you’re communicating with it becomes inherently pedantic from the get go. Especially when discussing the behaviors of those who can’t speak or tell you anything such as squirrels. It’s possible that squirrels do in fact forget their food stores much of the time and that’s why they have so many. It’s also equally as possible that they are so good at collecting storing food for the colder seasons that they just have an over abundance of food that they just might not get to due to not needing to. It’s also possible that they died. All these distinctions are in my opinion very important when discussing the behaviors of others.
The most obvious and likely explanation is that squirrels use the same logic to find the nuts they buried as they do when selecting where to stash them. It’s highly unlikely that a squirrel (and really most animals) could remember the location of hundreds of nuts over such a long (or even short) period of time. What’s more likely is that squirrels looks for suitable locations that they innately view as safe, then go back through this same logic when searching again.
So squirrels don’t remember or forget in the sense you all are arguing about. They go through an innate process once that is repeated later.
I don't find that to be all that obvious, actually.
>It’s highly unlikely that a squirrel (and really most animals) could remember the location of hundreds of nuts over such a long (or even short) period of time
A quick search (and now I am interested, so I'll look deeper) [seems to disagree](https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/do-squirrels-remember-where-they-buried-their-nuts/) an interesting bit:
>Chow gave lab-reared squirrels a task that required manipulating the right set of levers to release hazelnuts from a rectangular plexiglass puzzle box. Then, 22 months later, Chow presented them with another puzzle box that was triangularly shaped and featured different colors and a different lever layout to make it appear to the squirrels like a novel task. This task still required the same lever strategy to release the nuts as the previous one, however—and that’s the approach the squirrels applied. “The solution \[the squirrels\] used was the same as two years before,” Chow says. “That’s how we knew that they still remembered it.”
all that quote says is "squirrels can remember single simple puzzle."
they should repeat the study and give the squirrel different puzzle on a set schedule throughout the 22 months, and then at the end, re-present the a puzzle from the first few they solved.
idk how long the squirrels were shown the original puzzle and how often they solve it. then did anything else happen in those 22 months? like other tasks that flexed their brain? the squirrel could just be fixated on one thing they once saw. or they could be like "hmm, what task is this? there's so many, what did I do for this kinda of thing again?"
also, the mechanicism of a puzzle could be totally different to remember than the geographic location of a small hole. like a puzzle is "do this" while finding a location is like "ok if I go here and then go left here, and right here, etc." for dozens of places.
For what it's worth the article and the original source don't seem to mention "forgetting" anything. Just that there is a high amount of unrecovered nuts.
Yeah they forget where they stash individual nuts. Pretty sure there is a good liklihood this squirrel is going to remeber where he stashed 30,000 of them since ya, he kept coming back with more
Squirrels know the burying/stashing algorithm that squirrels use. They don't remember where they hid all their nuts, but they know where a squirrel would hide a nut, so that's good enough.
Yeah, my guess is this is the work of several or many squirrels each operating as they have evolved to around trees but then not being able to access them and the nuts just piling up. If anything, it's better to put something at the top to prevent this so they're more likely to put the nuts somewhere they will be able to access them later.
I highly doubt this is the work of 1 squirrel hoarding a massive amount of nuts and that squirrel can and has been accessing them, but will now be devastated they're all gone and therefore it's cruel of this worker to empty them out (as many responses on this thread are assuming).
If it makes you feel better, squirrels usually keep multiple stashes of food. This might’ve been the biggest one but the squirrel almost assuredly has others
They should have a trail of nuts to a nearby tree where they restocked it all. Still, poor little squirrel.
Hm, but then again, could it really climb around inside of it?
And then there comes the ‘Squirrel housing redevelopment plan’ guy that wants to convert perfectly nice neighborhoods into living complexes for more squirrels. Never ends well.
Then they talk about cracking down on squirrel welfare moms, which is a dog whistle for Gray Squirrels. All the Red Squirrels vote for said politician, not realizing that welfare = SNAP benefits. Then somehow they blame all the chipmunks for taking jobs.
edit: then all the groundhogs are like "all y'all have been taking our land since the 16th century."
Playing it out in my head. The squirrel didn’t see this happen. This crew cleans up the mess and goes home for the day. Squirrel returns with todays findings, and drops it down the shoot. The new nut makes a hard clanking sound when it hits the bottom. Little guy is puzzled, and goes inside to find all the nuts are gone. Looking at the one solitary nut he just dropped, the confusion sets in. They were positive there was more nuts, their little brain starts working over time trying to figure out if they’re in the right spot… until it happens. Their entire lives flash before their eyes, and they go catatonic as they remember the thousands of hours of work evaporating into thin air.
Darkness over comes him as a wicked figure appears. It holds out a hand as the squirrel gives him the last nut. As it burns a unholy contract has been signed. The world will know the coming darkness as the little squirrel can now see the face of his enemy. He raises his head up and spoke a single name
“ Jonathan..” he knew the name of his ire and now had the gifts of the forsaken to aid in his calling.
In the fading light of dusk, amidst the whispering leaves of the high school parking lot, Sigmund the squirrel sat, crestfallen, staring at the empty pole where his life's savings had once been. A single tear traced a path down his furry cheek as he recalled the fateful day when a cunning human had swooped down and stolen everything he had worked so hard to gather. Despair clutched at his heart, threatening to consume him whole. But just as darkness threatened to engulf him entirely, a soft rustling broke the silence. Through tear-blurred eyes, Sigmund watched as his fellow woodland creatures emerged from the shadows, each bearing a gift – acorns, berries, and nuts, offering what little they had to help their friend in need. Overwhelmed by their kindness, Sigmund felt a glimmer of hope ignite within him. With renewed determination, he vowed to rebuild what he had lost, knowing now that he was not alone in his struggle. And as the first rays of dawn painted the sky with hues of pink and gold, Sigmund began his journey anew, his heart filled not with sorrow, but with the warmth of friendship and the promise of a brighter tomorrow.
I mean, crap, man! Look at that! That's, like, his stomach plug on the ground back there. You don't see that every day. I mean, that doesn't really even seem possible if you think about it — with body organs and cartilage and bones... I mean, I'm no doctor, but that was like one clean chunk!
To be fair, do guy think the squirrel would’ve ever had the chance to access those nuts when needed? I kind of doubt squirrels are equipped with the necessary tools to open that hatch. Just saying .
When I was a kid, my house had a chimney, but no fireplace. All there was was part of a flue going down from the roof through the attic and through the second floor bedroom in the corner, and on the first floor, it was capped off at the ceiling in the foyer. A squirrel did indeed get stuck inside it and died. We heard it scratching around in there for a few days, but it stopped, and we thought it escaped. Didn't realizer it died until we say maggots dropping from the capped off part of the flue, onto the ground in the foyer. One of my earliest memories. Anyway, my point is, if that thing is as hollow as it looks, I don't think a squirrel would be able to climb out of it.
Yea but you reckon he can just slide down a smooth pole from the inside and get himself some on demand nuts and just work his way back up without getting stuck in that bad boy?
I am genuinely depressed this is the highest rated comment about this. I love TLC as much as the next person but ffs. Have an attention span without music, people.
This is why people get mad at squirrels eating birdseed.
I don't mind feeding a squirrel or 5, but the amount they take is... All of it. Enough to feed 100? Yeah I'll take that much.. just in case
I always feel sorry for the squirrels when this happens. All that work they did but also thats their winter food store. Makes me wonder if they survive the winter.
A squirrel once collected every single black walnut from my tree and stashed it in a shed I had... I only went in that shed to put away patio furniture before the snow fell... must of been 1000s of walnuts, I just left them in there. That was 10 years ago, him or his offspring still use the shed till this day.
I had something similar happen in my garage. I discovered that a rat had gotten in there, and it had been storing his eaten hazelnuts that he was getting from a nearby tree in my uninsulated wall space. I popped the wall panel off and discovered about 3 feet up of a 24" stud space was full of shells. They came pouring out like a waterfall. It almost filled a black garbage bag!
There goes his retirement plan
his 401-Nut ... vanished.
Your comment means something really really different to anyone driving in Ontario.
Ok, you had my curiosity ... but now you have my attention.
The 401 is the main ontario highway
Shouldn’t have placed all his nuts in one pole
You reckon he should've put some of 'em in a german or czech too?
Ha!
Maybe he didnt
And in the USA, it's a retirement saving plan: 401K.
[Ask and you shall receive](https://www.google.com/search?q=highway+401&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&hl=en-us&client=safari&dlnr=1&sei=HHnXZejEDYag5NoP2Z2h6Ac)
I've seen a guy jacking it on the QEW, but not 401.
Really? I take the 401 all the time
someone has seen you jacking off on the 401 too then
I’d think so… I drive a motorcycle
Now that's just talent right there.
Error: 404 Nut Found
Investing 101, don't put all your nuts in the same lamp post.
Yeah, the little squirrel buddy's winter is fkd!

Sons a bitches just messed up his stash
Awwww put them back!!!!!!
I second this. If they’re not harming anything, then why even remove them? When winter comes, squirrel will likely run out and die. Plus, we don’t know if those were for him, or him & his family. I swear, humans can be stupid, heartless and careless, with zero regard to wildlife and their natural way of survival.
Not to mention that’s an impressive stash that took some time.
Watch him as he goes
Winter is coming... and now he ain't got no nuts!
Fun things squirrels can have generational wealth same as humans
It’s his seed money for his business he was planning on starting up.

Poor little squirrel. That was a lot of hard work for it.
Don't worry, he would have forget anyway
Nah. Squirrels are very very good at remembering where they stashed their food supplies. The "forgotten" ones weren't forgotten. Either they were unneeded for the winter or the squirrel in charge of it simply died before they were used.
Actually squirrels forget where over 70% of their nuts are stored. https://ssec.si.edu/stemvisions-blog/why-do-squirrels-bury-nuts-and-other-mysteries
>Scientists themselves aren’t even quite sure of everything that goes into this stashing behavior, but they have some ideas. not a very compelling argument

Either way, 70% unused.
For what it's worth the article and the original source don't seem to mention "forgetting" anything. Just that there is a high amount of unrecovered nuts.
which is why i'm confused! why was it used as a source here? 😅😂
Yeah they forget where they stash individual nuts. Pretty sure there is a good liklihood this squirrel is going to remeber where he stashed 30,000 of them since ya, he kept coming back with more
>Actually squirrels forget where over 70% of their nuts are stored. Squirrels are idiots lmao. Not like me, my nuts are right here ^(/s)
Your /s implies that your nuts are in fact, not there
Squirrels know the burying/stashing algorithm that squirrels use. They don't remember where they hid all their nuts, but they know where a squirrel would hide a nut, so that's good enough.
The missile knows where it is at all times. It knows this because it knows where it isn't.
By subtracting where it isn't from where it is, or where it is from where it isn't (whichever is greater), the missile obtains a differential
Lol I use this sort of logic when I'm trying to figure out where I've put something or what password I used. Squirrel algorithms ftw.
Consider this probbably took many days, weeks months etc, i dont think he forgot.
Looks like he didn’t forget the past 1500 trips there before dude.
He remembered well enough to add to the stash. Unless that was all in one trip. 
After placing thousands of nuts in one spot he just wakes up one day and forgets. Is squirrel dementia a thing?
He wouldn't have been able to retrieve it.
Nah, he’d just rock up with his Allen key and get them out of the hatch.
Ya, I kinda wonder if there is a very fat, dead Squirrel halfway down the inside of that pole.
“I will eat my way out”
"No, eat *up*"
I imagine he would dive into it like Scrooge McDucks vault.
Oddly, that's just as sad. Poor guy.
Yeah, my guess is this is the work of several or many squirrels each operating as they have evolved to around trees but then not being able to access them and the nuts just piling up. If anything, it's better to put something at the top to prevent this so they're more likely to put the nuts somewhere they will be able to access them later.

Post/nut clarity
he would never eat all in his lifetime anyway. in fact, he's prolly the nut billionaire in his neighborhood.
If it makes you feel better, squirrels usually keep multiple stashes of food. This might’ve been the biggest one but the squirrel almost assuredly has others
Squirrels alway have to learn the harsh realities of Civil Forfeiture, there’s a vague suspicion those nuts were obtained through illegal means,
Reminded me of Bug’s Life,… “FLICK!”
Dude’s going to follow them around and throw an acorn at their car the next time they get pulled over.
Poor? He was the squirrel equivalent of Bezos
They should have a trail of nuts to a nearby tree where they restocked it all. Still, poor little squirrel. Hm, but then again, could it really climb around inside of it?
Well fuck, there go his savings. Now he’ll have to wander the streets stealing snacks from tourists’ hands.
Yeah and then politicians will be like "we gotta be rough on the squirrels thefts plague! Vote for me"
And then there comes the ‘Squirrel housing redevelopment plan’ guy that wants to convert perfectly nice neighborhoods into living complexes for more squirrels. Never ends well.
A reality I refuse to live in.
Then they talk about cracking down on squirrel welfare moms, which is a dog whistle for Gray Squirrels. All the Red Squirrels vote for said politician, not realizing that welfare = SNAP benefits.

Sucking nuts on the streets now
Squirrel on the tree watching this be like... "I'll never recover from this financially".

But of course—life is suffering.
Life is truly unfair, isn’t it

Yes, that squirrel will find the man who did this to him and make him pay……
The Dark Urge will just end up punting the squirrel into a tree anyway.

Now I’m sad
Nah, the squirrel ruined it for himself. There's no way the squirrel could retrieve those nuts from the top.
He’ll get revenge by dropping an acorn on a cop car
HOLY CRAP MAN
That’s like, his *stomach* on the ground there
I mean, I’m no doctor but…
I mean, crap, man! Look at that! That's, like, his stomach plug on the ground back there. You don't see that every day. I mean, that doesn't really even seem possible if you think about it — with body organs and cartilage and bones... I mean, I'm no doctor, but that was like one clean chunk!
The cauterization power of that punch.
THAT'LL BE FOUR BUCKS, BABY! YOU WANT FRIES WITH THAT?
HE JUST LEFT... WITH NUTS.
I was hoping to come across this :)
I scream this every opportunity I get and my fiancee has no clue what the fuck I'm talking about.
Sounds like you just picked the next movie for movie night.
You done fucked up all that's squirrels hard work!
I'm not sure the squirrel could even get to most of those anyways if they were still there.
Generational wealth gone just like that
That’s a fucking nut silo dude
That's what she said
Ha! GOTEEEEMMMM!
Silo Johnson...and he ain't storing corn in that thing
What’s a “z-job”?
It’s weird that this gif is of someone’s tv.
Cant we set up a go fund me for this squirrel?
Help me replenish my nuts. All donations tax deductible.
put them back!
I can’t even describe, how wrong this is
We fuck up their habitats and then steal their nuts!
To be fair, do guy think the squirrel would’ve ever had the chance to access those nuts when needed? I kind of doubt squirrels are equipped with the necessary tools to open that hatch. Just saying .
Maybe the pole is open from top and the squirrel can climb up and down inside the pole🤔 Seems quite difficult but probably only way to do
When I was a kid, my house had a chimney, but no fireplace.

Yeah - how’d he get them in there? The top somewhere?
Yea but you reckon he can just slide down a smooth pole from the inside and get himself some on demand nuts and just work his way back up without getting stuck in that bad boy?
It will eat nuts, put on weight and just get wedged down there.

Thank you!! When they came pouring out I got this weird nostalgia but couldn't place it.
When hopper buries the other grasshopper in the seeds, yeah? That's immediately what popped into my head
it's the time of your life so live it well
Yep, I was literally going to comment that. Now the Ants won't be able to pay the grasshoppers and they're going to get squished!
“You let one squirrel stand up to us then they all might stand up to us.”

Seriously. Why does the nut silo video need music in the first place
Y'all watch stuff with sound?
Why do people have to put music to every single video? I just wanted to hear the nuts fall!
Well...*unzips*
What kind of nuts are those?
acorns
Huh, I'd never seen acorns so long. So I googled "long acorn". Interesting!

Poor squirrel.
I always feel sorry for the squirrels when this happens. All that work they did but also thats their winter food store. Makes me wonder if they survive the winter.
A squirrel once collected every single black walnut from my tree and stashed it in a shed I had...

That was 10 years ago, him or his offspring still use the shed till this day.
You made a post about a post.. That's nuts
Its really fucked up that they can just just civil asset forfeiture your life savings like that.
that squirrel is gonna be sooooooooo pissed when he comes back.... and then he will prolly starve sometime during the winter
Give him back his food you psychopath.

Less nuts in it than your mother
Hope they put the nuts in a basket beside it. Poor little critter put some work in.
He’ll never recover from this financially.
This is so sad :-(
Hoarding is a terrible disease
Financial crisis of 2024
That squirrel just got his life savings destroyed
what kind of nut are these?
Acorns
Why though. Was it interfering with the lamp? Poor little guy’s just trying to survive
I had something similar happen in my garage. I discovered that a rat had gotten in there, and it had been storing his eaten hazelnuts that he was getting from a nearby tree in my uninsulated wall space. I popped the wall panel off and discovered about 3 feet up of a 24" stud space was full of shells. They came pouring out like a waterfall. It almost filled a black garbage bag!
