Something is going on with the animals in New York City.
First we had a pizza fanatic who showed us the struggles of being a rat in the big city, and then we had this very thirsty squirrel dumpster-diving for a sweet treat. Now, the animals have have stepped up their game with the newest addition to their viral hits: the squirrel tomato thief!
Some unfortunate individuals lost a good bit of ripe produce by leaving their bags on a park bench. Word to the wise: For more reasons than one, don’t leave your belongings unattended! A hungry squirrel might just steal your food from right under your nose.
Which is exactly what happened! A squirrel came from behind a bench and picked out a very, very large tomato from the bag.
Unsurprisingly, this sneaky little guy fails to carry it all the way back down to the ground, so it falls down. After some hesitation (and with a lot of gumption), he picks it back up and lugs it away. He is later seen happily snacking on the tomato in front of some shocked onlookers.
We hope this animal-stealing-food phenomenon doesn't get any more serious!
