#OccupyWallStreet: Tiny, Adorable Pet Squirrel Spotted In Zucotti Park (PHOTO)

LOOK: The Cutest Little #OccupyWallStreet Protester

The tiniest, furriest, cutest protester who didn't get pepper-sprayed by the NYPD Wednesday was a squirrel.

Amy Sly, the Visual Designer for Buzzfeed, spotted the little guy perched on the shoulder of a woman named Danielle in Zucotti Park. Danielle said she found the squirrel a few months ago under a tree near her house after a heavy storm. Its legs were broken and instead of putting the squirrel down, Danielle adopted it, nursed it back to health and dubbed it Hazlenut.

Awww! Now if only protesters can get the Bronx Zoo's newest baby giraffe down to Zucotti Park, #OccupyWallStreet may win over America with sheer cuteness.
