squirrels hidden in cages?

Could that be a bug? It's not that I've never seen it, it's that I've never heard anything remotely like "animals being hidden in cages". (Better to reply on the Gray squirrel‎ page.) --Albedo 23:21, 27 May 2009 (UTC)

Lake article

Tower-caps will grow in an underground pool, providing a safe wood source. 

What exactly do you mean by this? "In" the pool? Perhaps another awkward choice of words. Also, the choice of the word "safe" in the context of an underground pool (and what creatures are usually found there) is arguable.--Albedo 23:28, 28 May 2009 (UTC)
