TRANSCRIPT
Just a few days old, the kits are growing fast.
And as soon as their eyes begin to open, they start exploring.
Before long, the bright outside beckons.
Baby steps.
But the kits get bolder, and soon start to enjoy everything the park has to offer.
With a whole new generation out and about, the colony is bustling.
And it's drawn some attention.
American crows love the park too.
It's an easy place to find food.
But today, they seem to have more than leftovers on their minds.
The kits don't seem to grasp the danger.
The crows buy their time.
The kits can't stay underground forever.
One fewer squirrel in this colony.
