Squirrels really do love their nuts.
Guests shopping in a gift shop at Walt Disney World got more than they bargained for when a squirrel entered the store and stole a pack of peanut M&Ms.
A video was posted last week on Facebook by Brianna Bradshaw (via Jessica Dornfried) that showed a squirrel at the gift shop sitting in a plastic bin full of candy. A visitor to the Florida theme park begins to yell at the squirrel to make it leave the store, and that's when the robbery occurs.
YOU GO, SQUIRREL! This squirrel snagged a bag of Peanut M&Ms from a Magic Kingdom gift shop - then made its getaway with the bag still in its mouth. https://t.co/DsCLbPiDLkpic.twitter.com/KFJiZRONyH- ABC News (@ABC) June 12, 2018

Not only does the squirrel pick up a bag of peanut M&Ms and bring them to the floor, but he also manages to grab the candy and run out the front door without paying.
The video ends with the squirrel running into the sunlight of the theme park, one bag of peanut M&Ms richer. This brazen robbery has gone viral, with more than one million views on the video.
