New Yorkers are noticing something odd: Squirrels are laid out on all fours
People across the city noticed the squirrels flat on their stomachs — all four legs splayed out. The city's parks department said it's normal for four-legged critters to cool down by flattening2 out.
LEILA FADEL, HOST:
Good morning. I'm Leila Fadel. New Yorkers have been noticing something odd - squirrels all over the city flat on their stomachs, all four legs splayed out. Passersby3 worried. The city's park department said no need. In a tweet, the guardians4 of urban wildlife say it's normal for squirrels and other four-legged critters to cool down by flattening out. It's even got a name - splooting. Maybe we should all enjoy a nice sploot this weekend. It's MORNING EDITION.
