You all know about the crasher squirrel, which barged in the family photo of Melissa Brandts in Alberta :

This amazing squirrel has been seen in numerous pictures throughout history, from Jesus' Last Supper to the coronation ofQueen Elizabeth II :

As you can see, he's been on the moon and he was even caught playing a trick to the Pope.

But do you even know why this playful squirrel does all that for ? Because his species is endangered, and it wants to spread the word.

Indeed, the Ongoye Red Squirrel (Paraxerus palliatus ornatus) and the Tonga Red Bush Squirrel (Paraxerus palliatus tongensis) are endangered mammals. They are considered as"vulnerable", which means "facing a high risk of extinction in the wild".

But the more surprising is to come. The growing popularity of the crasher squirrel has inspired many others (all pictures below are original and have not been photoshopped) :

The crasher seal : "Enough with pengouins. I want to pass on a message : stop slaughtering my seal fellows for their fur !"

The crasher cat : "Hey, I want to tell you that my feline bros the Marbled, Black-footed, Black-Headed, Irimote and Asian Leopard Cat are endangered species".

So, have these off-the-wall animals convinced you ? ;-)

If so, you can right now sign the petition to protect endangered species. And if you think that signing a petition for each species is more efficient, as I do, browse the following :

• for the Pacific Northwest Tree Octopus
• for the Buffalo Field
• for polar bears
• for the black-tailed prairie dog (Cynomys ludovicianus)
• to stop the dolphin massacre in Denmark

You can even sign a petition to save the Yeti at Disney's Animal Kingdom Park !! Ah ah :D

Are there another species you want to be protected ? Just add a comment to tell us, with the link to the petition !
