Squirrel too smart to be pranked

This little red squirrel adores his peanuts, but he has a hard time when he finds one tied down to the deck with an elastic band. He literally goes in circles trying to figure out how to free his treat. He even pauses and looks curiously at the camera as he reconsiders his approach. His perseverance wins in the end, proving that it's hard to outsmart a red squirrel when peanuts are on the line!
