Squeak Squeak, Squeak Squeakins

This makes me slip into a fit of giggles:
The researchers studied the sounds and then played them back to 60 wild squirrels, which the scientists approached individually with a video recorder to capture their responses. Some squirrels lifted their heads up and become alert. Creatures that were more frightened simply ran for their lives and dived into burrows.
Just thinking about researchers running up to squirrels is humorous. It reminds me of the animated Sword in the Stone when the one squirrel falls in love with Merlin and he has to tell her that he's an old man.
