Spokane parks to detonate squirrels
It seems the Finch Arboretum is being overrun with ground squirrels, so their Parks department is planning on using something called the Rodenator to kill them.
The device injects a mixture of oxygen and propane into the tunnels, then ignites it. Despite the overly dramatic (and hysterical) headline, the rodents are actually killed by the shock wave, not the fire itself.
I can’t wait to see how Peta protests this one. I picture almost naked co-eds and hookahs.
Here’s a video about the Rodenator from someone who had a lot of time…and a lot of beer.
I just hope they’re aware that squirrels can sometimes fight back.
