Chocoholic squirrel turns treat thief
Posted 4 hours 13 minutes ago
A squirrel with a sweet tooth heads to a Finnish grocery shop at least twice a day to steal Kinder Surprise chocolate-shelled eggs.
The manager of the store in the central Finland town of Jyvaskyla, Irene Lindroos, says she has named the critter the 'Kinder squirrel' because of its taste for the confectionary with a toy inside.
"It always goes after them. Other sweets do not seem to interest it as much," she said.
"It removes the foil carefully, eats the chocolate and leaves the store with the toy."
Unfortunately, she says the bushy-tailed thief does not clean up after itself but leaves the wrappers behind.
