Do squirrels like to interact with humans?
Squirrels may be habituated to human presence. But that doesn't mean they are tame creatures.
In reality, talking to squirrels is not strange or bizarre at all.
Squirrels are social animals by nature, and although they are instinctively timid, they are also curious about humans. Once they learn that you are not a threat, talking to squirrels becomes very easy and natural.
