Here is another image from the same fight:

The two squirrels were both females, if you did not notice.   One was the local dominate female, and the other one was challenging her for dominance.

I believe those are "Golden mantled" ground squirrels. They are neat little creatures and very friendly towards humans. I trained one, over a period of time to take a peanut out of my shirt pocket.

I'm still rather fond of the black squirrels that have begun to invade my area from Canada. They scare the %$#@ out of people the first time they see them.

But nothing is more fearsome than the Zombie Chipmunk.

Neither did I until I stumbled on that picture and did a little research to see if it's true.  The Eastern Chipmunk (which is the type in the picture) favorite foods include: nuts, buds, berries, seeds, mice, frogs, insects, bird eggs and human brains.

Those fighting squirrels were actually in the Kalahari Desert of Namibia.

The photographer was David Slater.   He just recently won an award for this photo of two male blackbirds going at each other:

I guess that it is not only just humans who cannot get along.

Those are the secret society of the Ninja Squires.  They reach up from the trees and tear your planes from the skies.  They also work part time as S.A.A.P. pilots, and soda jerks at you local Dairy Queen.
