      I wonder if it’s actually bad for the squirrels or just makes them more powerful.

        I’d imagine that if you’re spending time and energy finding and smoking vapes you’re not looking for actual food. And such tiny animals don’t have a lot of reserves.

          I mean it really depends on where the squirrels are

          my brother’s apartment neighbors basically use the yard by the road as a trash midden and the squirrels there are fat as fuck

        Squirrels are very small animals, nicotine is probably 10-50x more harmful to them than to us.

    If you can train the squirrels to collect the vapes and exchange them for food, you could build your own e-bike battery with them

      Can you actually train a squirrel? Are there smart like ravens?

        You can train most mammals, because mammals are generally smart and understand rewards, so yeah I imagine you could train squirrels.

      First Marx never accounted for that is actually true, never once in capital does he talk about vaping squirrels, or even the humble cig-smoking ape

        I imagine those drugged squirrels are living their best life.

        There is always reason for concern about human, wildlife contact but squirrels don’t seem that much worse adapted than rats and those are doing great.

    Im stuck between being melencholy about the concept and the happy thought that if squirrels learn about dip they could pack such a fat lip in. Whole can in one go.

    Does anyone know what flavor they like most? I could stop by downtown and drop some old cartridges in a park on my way to throw car batteries in the ocean to recharge the eels

    almost as sad as when I saw a pigeon flying off from a train stop with a baggie of off white.

    Fun fact, the pigeons in chicago will actually ride the L in chicago to get to dif locations faster
