Talk about getting into some hot water. Reportedly, some 14 implike
squirrels were recently "arrested by Iranian authorities for espionage," as the critters were apparently found to have various amounts of "
spy gear from foreign agencies" on (er, in) their bodies. Some reports even mention that the animals were sporting embedded GPS sensors, but due to the high level of secrecy surrounding the capture, things are still a bit foggy. Nevertheless, Iran has apparently claimed that the "rodents were being used by Western powers in an attempt to undermine the Islamic Republic," and while it doesn't seem that anyone is really aware of the squirrels' fates, it looks like
sending in the animals to do a human's dirty work isn't as
effective as it
once was.
