Santa’s Little Hopper

Secret squirrel leaps onto UPS driver!

Delivery drivers are accustomed to meeting friendly animals — there’s an entire Instagram channel devoted to UPS drivers meeting dogs (and the occasional kangaroo) — but this UPS driver was caught off guard by a squirrel who hopped onto his shoulder while he waited to deliver a package. The squirrel hopped away seconds before the door opened, leaving the driver with an odd smile and a story nobody would believe if it hadn’t been caught on video.

What a special delivery, Andrew Y.

    Hah, what a reaction! What a cute and curious little squirrel… just wanted to dig around in his hat! “Can I has this?” UPS guy was amazingly calm and good natured about it… seems like a critter lover. 🙂

      Yes, he was amazingly relaxed – if that had happened tome I’m not so sure if I could’ve maintained such aplomb. Tho’ I would’ve loved it! I do love when the squirrel’s head first pops up in the frame!

        Yeah, I think I might have leaped six feet into the air. The driver was very cool about it. Seems like a very nice guy.

        I most definitely would have jumped out of my pants and startled the little darling.

    Now that I look at it again, it seems like the squirrel that there was something interesting under the guy’s hat. He feels around. Doesn’t find anything and hops away.
