Don't walk in front of me, I may not follow.
Don't walk behind me, I may not lead.
Just walk beside me and be my friend.-- Albert Camus

What’s the name of the CUTE squirrel from Ice Age?
August 22, 2009Scrat is a “saber-toothed squirrel” (a fictional species) that appears in the Ice Age film series, starting with the 2002 film Ice Age and its sequels Ice Age: The Meltdown and Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs. He is best known for being obsessed with acorns, constantly putting his life in danger to obtain and protect them. He usually has his own stories in the film, independent of the main plot, which are parallel with the journeys of the other main characters simply by chance, making the other characters meet him occasionaly, although they never seem to remember him.
To me he kinda looks like my pet dog (Eskimo/Pomeratian cross) he has huge googly eyes when he is asking for treats or if he wants some of what you are having…
His character has proved enormously successful and many view him as a breakout character, the most popular character of the franchise. In a special feature in the second film’s DVD, his name has been stated to be a mix of the words “squirrel” and “rat“, his species being believed by fictional scientists to have been a common ancestor of the two.
In all Ice Age movies, as well as in the short films, Scrat is voiced by Chris Wedge.
