Interesting Squirrel Encounter

My wife and I walked our dog this evening in a local park and saw a really interesting critter. We thought it might be some small monkey or marmoset. It was big, nearly a foot high, and it had a black face and powerful legs. We were contemplating a call to animal control, but then I got close enough to see that he had a squirrel face and squirrel ears and a squirrel tale. I though I might have discovered a mutant uber-squirrel that would take over the world and split it with the wild pigs, but it turned out to be a fox squirrel. Of course, I didn't have my camera so this link has a pic.

The killer squirrels have begun an insurgency. They're already on the attack!
