When I was little, my Dad filled up our Easter baskets and hid them in the attic for a couple of days because he knew we wouldn't find them there. Easter morning he goes up to get them, and all three baskets were totally devoid of candy. The big solid bunnies... gone. Hershey eggs... gone. M&Ms... gone. Marshmallow peeps... gone. There were wrappers everywhere, but not a scrap of candy. Turned out some squirrels had found his stash and devoured everything. The thing he found most impressive was he could see all the foil eggs had been unwrapped, not bitten through like the stuff in plastic containers or paper was. They had pulled every bit of foil off.
And for the record... all that candy did not hurt one squirrel that we ever saw.
