When I first notice her I wasn't sure on what I was seeing. Until she came to get some peanuts from me. She is very lucky that her tooth didn't grow into her brain.

Thanks for the information, I will keep an eye on her and if she needs help I will be there for her.

Squirrels' teeth grow continuously so they have to gnaw to keep them down. This squirrel probably has a tooth that is misaligned with the lower teeth that prevents that. Squirrels with misaligned teeth often have them grow into the brain and they die. This one is lucky, it grew out to the side. You could get it fixed, but it would just grow back. Pulling it might work. Seems to have adapted pretty well, though, probably nothing you can do. But you could ask a rehabber.
