I've never seen that before. I know cactus pears are fine to give the squirrellies, but not sure about that one. Hope someone else knows....:dono

I saw these in the markets in Southeast Asia, for people to eat. I have no idea what this means for squirrels, though. Apparently if you eat too much your urine turns red. I ate some. It was good. Nothing bad happened.
