Our two non-native gummi berry (Elaeagnus multiflora) shrubs, located in the arboretum near the Student Union Building, have been exceedingly productive this spring. For more than a week they have steadily offered ripe fruits for snacking. Luckily, the squirrels didn't get the memo until this weekend. Below, we have raw footage of the squirrels raiding the gummi berry shrubs. At least six individuals were identified.
