THE SQUIRREL:

There is an old Scandanavian legend that the squirrel is a messenger of the gods and carries news of what is going on in the world to animals in distant lands.
The squirrel Ratatosk was said to dwell in the Scandanavian-Norse World Tree. Ratatosk was a mischief-maker, carrying gossip from one place to another.
