You have to ask whether these people ARE serious or just playing pranks on the operators. No-one can be this thick??? Also, it IS the Red Squirrel that is the rare one. Blame the American grey squirrel.
I can't understand why anyone would think it's even a little bit funny to do this.
It wouldn't even be funny if they were to phone me at work or home, but to phone an emergency, life or death number where it's not just annoying but could cost someones life is ridiculous.
At the very least she could put the time and effort in to make her story funny and get her facts right. Grey Squirrels are not rare, and their main nutty treat isn't Hazelnuts but Acorns!
haha quality........ you cant get any more thoughtfull than that......

prank calling emergency numbers is a VERY sick kind of humour, and the people who do it must be disturbed.

i can't believe he actually argues about the rarity of the grey squirrel, surely that's not the main issue?

The Operater owned her...the red ones are rare.....and he probably reported her for hoax calling

God forbid this squirrel does have legs and can use them, and probably covers more area than this woman has ever been in here life.
He was probably on a day trip out, he had some nuts in his lunch box. maybe it was on his seat on the coach.

Hmm...an £80 is too good for this waste of air.
I hope when she calls police because her mum has been mugged she gets a busy tone.
hahahahaha

is anyone really that stupid? Can't these people be put somewhere, preferably together as they are too foolish to be roaming around in society?

perhaps they should do callbacks during odd hours to check up on these people and get an update on their situations.

Yes, when it comes scampering back out of her backside. Its the only apt punishment in this case. ;-)
