At the University College of Arts in Mohanlal Sukhadia University, Udaipur, Rajasthan, India, a squirrel has caused panic by attacking over 18 individuals in the past month. Students and staff are increasingly anxious, with many avoiding open areas on campus. Babu Dinesh Chandra Gurjar, a college staff member, reported witnessing the aggressive behavior firsthand, stating that the squirrel has been known to leap at passersby and retreat into nearby trees. The university believes the squirrel's actions may stem from territorial instincts, as it is suspected to have built a nest near the Psychology Department. Those bitten are receiving anti-rabies treatment following medical advice. Despite attempts by the Animal Aid rescue team to capture the animal, it has successfully evaded capture. This unusual situation has sparked a wave of reactions on social media, with some users humorously speculating about the squirrel's motives.
