Right. The squirrels are Sandy’s Lost Forest Irregulars, eh? There is a lot of contrary information online about whether peanuts (legumes) are good for squirrels. The consensus seems to be that raw (or salted) peanuts should be avoided, but roasted nuts are fine. And give them in moderation.

Anyway, how the #@(!! are the squirrels going to assist with the search? Are they trained search-and-rescue rodents? Did they graduate from Lassie U? Perhaps they have interrogation techniques we have not realized. I’m reserving judgement at this point.
