For the PNUT community and Peanut, the squirrel’s fans, Elon Musk’s backing seemed like a call to action, shining a light on the story again and standing as a symbol of resistance against perceived injustices. Longo, Peanut’s owner, had established the Freedom Farm animal sanctuary in Pine City. 

In the memory of Peanut, his owner stated, “We moved to a small town to start a nonprofit animal rescue called P’Nut’s Freedom Farm. We understood that this internet sensation was a wave and we wanted to turn it into something great, so we moved to New York from Connecticut. We … have rescued over 300 animals, all in the name of Peanut.”  

Musk and Rogan share their frustration and disbelief regarding the government’s action in a case involving Mark Longo the owner of Peanut who had his pet squirrel and raccoon taken away and ultimately euthanized.  They felt this was a clear example of Biden government’s overreach and showed a troubling lack of respect for animals that were cared for and trained from a young age making these situations seem tragic and unnecessary for both the owner and the pets.
