Laughter at What ‘Petty’ Squirrel Does To Ring Doorbell Camera in Its Way [Video]

A Texas resident has left internet viewers in hysterics after sharing the unexpected moment a squirrel “drop-kicked” the Ring doorbell camera outside his home.

Reddit user u/SirRipOliver shared the hilarious footage showing the squirrel running across the porch and leaping toward the security camera at pace. The Ring camera didn’t stand a chance against this ferocious critter, as it fell to the side and turned purple as a result.

The creature certainly had a point to prove, as u/SirRipOliver told Newsweek that he has been leaving food out for some opossums, and the “petty, resentful squirrels” don’t seem to approve. As well as trying to steal the possum food that was left out, the squirrel had it in for the camera, too, and made its feelings very clear.
