Burgers are probably tastier than acorns, after all.
As fall approaches and the temperature drops, many animals may be looking to add on a few extra pounds. For one squirrel in Florida, this apparently means that it’s time to hit up the golden arches.
A video uploaded to Reddit claims to show a squirrel snacking on a McDonald’s burger. And while it may just be the angle of the camera, the animal does appear to be heavier than your average squirrel.
The video was uploaded by Jamie Walton near a McDonald’s in Venice, Fla., Metro.UK reports. In the footage, the burger looks to be nearly the same size as the small animal.

“I pulled into a parking space and it was a few feet from my door. I thought it was funny and people have found it amusing," Walton explained, according to the news outlet.
While many commenters on Reddit assumed the squirrel was a bit on the heavy side, others speculated that it might be pregnant. According to Walton, “There have been many comments saying the squirrel is pregnant … It is not typical for them to give birth this time of year, but I am not an expert.”

Kalinowski also feeds the squirrels on the table.
