"...hapless family of squirrels..."

Please! What about the "hapless family of bugs" the squirrels ate?! No one's crying for them...

Dear National Geographic,

squirrel = food

Squirrels in domestic areas break into garbage cans, rip open cat food bags and leave muddy paw prints everywhere - they are not "cuddly" and "oh-please-don't-show-the-mean-old-snakey-eating-the-squirrely-wirrelies!". I'm all for the hungry black mamba to eat a healthy squirrel snack, so for the love of being a Federally-funded nature education organization, quit siding with the damn squirrels and show us the nice snakey striking, killing and eating his dinner!
