unbelievable....
...that even The Daily Mir^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H The Guardian starts publishing such speculations, under Science no less... based on an email published on a UFO site which publishes facial interpretations of shadows on planets, moons, etc, oh wait and what they call “a squirrel on mars”:

it is not a squirrel
but a beaver rat.
