Tufted Ground Squirrel
« on: April 26, 2015, 03:07:08 pm »

This is questionable, but apparently there is a little known about species of squirrel in Indonesia that apparently kills larger animals by latching onto their necks and slitting them. After killing the animal, they "feast on its eternal organs" or something like that. After reading about this I realized something like this would be a fun addition to dwarf fortress.
