Great shots, but I’m not seeing anything except a normal walnut shell. No gnaw marks to speak of. If anyone is thinking the two symmetrical cavities were produced by a squirrel, it just ain’t so. Think of what a walnut looks like as you start to pop it in your mouth - that convoluted shape was enclosed in the shell, which acted as the basic mold determining that weird shape. What we have in these photos are sections of that natural mold.

Thanks Ron. You're right of course, I was just trying to be clever. 😎

Unfortunately those dang tree rats got into my crawlspace and started feasting on my electric wiring.
