When Nature Attacks: Hilarious Animal Revenge Stories

1. The Squirrel That Shut Down a Power Grid

A sleepy Midwest town went dark for hours thanks to a single rogue squirrel. The furry saboteur chewed through high-voltage lines and instantly triggered a massive outage. The damage knocked out electricity to over 3,000 homes, the town hall, and even a wedding reception.

While the squirrel didn’t survive the encounter, its legacy lives on. The town’s annual fair now includes a “Squirrel Safety Dance” and mock trial re-enactments where kids play prosecutors and defenders of the bushy-tailed bandit.
