A car engine probably isn't the best spot for a home, but try telling that to squirrels.
Gabe Awrey shared a photo of his friend's car engine bay last week, which was filled entirely with pinecones and other bits and pieces gathered by squirrels over an unidentified period of time.
It's rather disturbing.
Do squirrels not know about fire hazards? In their defense, it does seem like a cozy place to live. And since it obviously took a long time for the car's owner to discover the stash, the squirrels picked a good hiding spot.
Maybe the squirrels were just moving and didn't have time to hire a van?
Either way, now might be a good time to check and see if your car is housing any wild animals' homes.
