Hello, Cherries!

In 2016, The Hague, Netherlands spent $220,000 (US dollars) to build a bridge across a busy highway for . . . SQUIRRELS!  Local officials wanted to make sure squirrel population numbers did not decline, so they wanted to come up with a safe way for squirrels to find a mate, without getting killed trying to cross the highway.

Here is the actual bridge:

That is insane.  Not even sure how to rationalize a squirrel bridge! LOL

I've seen the same concept in Costa Rica for monkeys.

I wonder if they will need to pay a toll to cross the bridge?

Wow! I think I need that bridge here for the squirrelys. That would keep Miss Penny Lane busy forever! That dog loves her squirrelys!
