This is the first time I have seen this happen. I was on my way to work when I saw a squirrel get hit on the side of the rode. After the car was gone I saw him in the street just convulsing. I told Dan to pull over, I was NOT going to leave him in the middle of the road. So I jumped out and got my sweater but when I got to him he was already dead. I'm not going to go into detail but he didn't look too good. I grabbed him by his little feetsies and set him next to a tree. I just couldn't let people run over him, even if he was already dead. I felt so bad and was trying not to cry. He was so young still. While I was carrying him off the road the cars stopped for me and one lady thanked me for taking him off the street, which was really nice. Everyone else could have cared less.

So since I was about 15 minutes early I sat in the car and a crow came by and started picking at him. Dan said I saved a life because the crow would have been picking at him IN the road, but instead he was safe to eat what I had brought him away from cars. Witnessing the food chain sucks, but in a way I felt happy the crow got to eat.
