Should you give a peanut to a squirrel with the shell still on?

It's generally not advisable to give squirrels peanuts with the shell still on, as the shells can be difficult for them to crack open and may pose a choking hazard. Additionally, peanuts are not a natural part of a squirrel's diet and can lead to health issues if fed in excess. If you want to feed squirrels, consider offering them unsalted nuts without shells or other natural foods like fruits or seeds.
