*Ground Squirrels*

Ground squirrels whistle to tell each other it is safe to come up from their hiding. There are over a dozen adults scattered over a small area. Their young begin to play fight out on the eskers, while the parents eat and look out for danger.

black fyre

*walks away to give the leg to someone else.*

*Ground Squirrels*

An alarm is given amongst the rodents, and the quickly race back to their burrows. After a while, some adults peek their heads up and see that the wolf is gone. Their burrows could be dug up by a wolf now that the ground is completely frozen. Finally, they all come back out and resume their playing and eating.

*Ground Squirrels*

With little to hide behind, the ground squirrels saw you long before you reached them and dove into their tunnels. But, their tunnels are very shallow, so you might be able to dig a few out.

*playfully and hungrily she sticks a paw down the closet tunnel. feeling around until she felt something. she tried to pin it against a wall.*

*Ground Squirrels*

You managed to pin one of the rodents against a wall, but with its sharp front teeth, it bites you! It's only a small wound, but it sure hurts!

*growling in pain it tries to pull the stupid rodent up but changes her mind and pulls out her paw. she starts to dig!!*

*Ground Squirrels*

The ground squirrels flee to their deepest burrow, which isn't very deep. There are three ground squirrels in the hole you are trying to dig into.

Soon, you dig far enough to reach down with your muzzle and snatch up a squirrel.. Be quick though, they are very swift and might escape before you reach them!

*she was swift and quick reaching her muzzle down she snaps and tries to pull one up lightning quick. at the same time she squeezes hard to break its bones.*

*Ground Squirrels*

The one you catch is easily crushed to death between your jaws. A second squirrel squeezes past your muzzle and darts from his dug up tunnel to one nearby. The third rodent was too frightened to try and get away.
