So, it's more interesting than this. The trees are playing the squirrels. There's a normal amount of acorns that can support a normal amount of squirrels. But once every few years, the trees make a bunch more acorns. More than the normal amount of squirrels can eat. But not frequent enough that the number of squirrels increase. So the squirrels go crazy and hide em everywhere that year, but there's no way they can eat them all, so there are a bunch of acorns planted.
Tldr: trees manipulate # of acorns to get squirrels to plant more.Acorn trees? You mean oak trees?
The ones that make acorns. Acorn tree. ‘S got acorns on it, what else do you call it?
Bruh, I know the difference, and you know the difference, but the person I shamelessly stole this meme from doesn't. Please file your concerns with them.
I interpreted it to be from the squirrel's perspective. Let alone miraculously knowing what an acorn and a tree are called, how do you expect a squirrel to know it's an Oak tree?
Haha yes indeed therein lies the humor ☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️
But not for you, only for your grand x 100 children
You don't get a 250 year old forest in 25 years

What a hero, single-handedly counteracting deforestation. You go squirrel man, you go!
"Accidentally"
"Forgetting"That was the goal all along.
Squirrels in it for the long con.
So all the clever squirrels die of malnutrition?
Makes me wonder which mechanism has limited human intelligence.
Death in childbirth because human heads are enormous?
Ah yes the Sarah Silverman bit in a meme
Huh, I'm not a squirrel expert at all but I understood that they're pretty good at remembering their stashes.
Forgetful squirrels are one of the primary drivers of reforestation.
