The owner lost his pet in New York. The popular squirrel Peanut, whose videos were watched millions of times on social networks, passed away. It was euthanized by federal authorities, who initially seized the animal.
“The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation came to my house and took Peanut away. The squirrel’s owner, Mark Longo, wrote on his personal blog that he was taken for euthanasia. According to the man, Peanut has been his best friend and “the center of the universe” for the past seven years. As the animal’s owner admits, he doesn’t know how to cope with the loss.
As it turns out, the state Department of Environmental Conservation has received numerous complaints about the unsafe and illegal keeping of squirrels in homes. The ministry announced that wild animals can be potential carriers of rabies. However, Mark Long promised to prepare the necessary documents for the pet. However, authorities did not wait for the man to get a license.
Let us remind you that we have already mentioned the death of the legendary giraffe Samson. He lived for 30 years, which is quite a long time for members of his species.
