Squirrels are one of the smallest and generally most harmless animals on rimworlds. Storytellers often make this the target of your first maddened animal encounter, sending it to attack your colonists.

With very low health and a low melee damage, one might think this critter to be harmless but due to its very fast attack rate your colonists may suffer many bleeding wounds very quickly. Their small size makes them hard to shoot and a large group of squirrels turned manhunter can be especially dangerous.
