A "Nutty" Problem For Evolution.



In today's post we will be covering a certain behavior that Gray Squirrels do that I find Evolutionary scientist may have a hard time explaining. 



So what is this alleged activity that squirrels do that I find particularly fascinating. It turns out that grey squirrels know the difference between red and white oak acorns and will treat them differently. 
The white oak acorns tend to germinate almost as soon as they fall to the ground, this causes them to begin to lose nutritional value. The squirrels somehow instinctively know this because they tend to eat them first. The red acorns however will not germinate until after winter, the squirrels therefore don't eat them right away but bury them to eat in the winter. 

Now it's time for the real shocker, it turns out that squirrels have been seen biting through the embryo of the white acorns, this paralyzes the seed’s sprouting ability. They then bury the altered  acorns the same way that they would've with the red ones. Scientist have also observed the squirrels digging up the extra red  acorns that they had left over from winter and bitting off their embryos, which they would then bury again to save for later.

How can Naturalistic Scientist explain how blind random chance or the thoughtless process of natural selection cause some intelligence and order. The fact is, they can't. This is just one of many animal behaviors that cannot be explained naturalistically.

In conclusion we see that squirrels possess an intelligence that could only have been given to them by God, and this is just one more reason to doubt Darwinism and trust the word of God.
