Quote from a reading for History class that made me LOL: "Probably after the 19th century, North American muskrats and squirrels successfully colonized large areas of Europe."

The idea of squirrels colonizing anything amuses me.

I imagine them sailing over on little ships.

actually, where I live we have an invasive species of squirrels that's been taking over

came from Canada

grey squirrels have driven red ones into extinction in England, I wonder if they're the ones mentioned in that article

Squirrels are the true colonisers, nobody expects the squirrel inquisition

They're so fluffy!
And yeah, that's probably it.
