The title of this article is conjectural. Though the topic is found within The Simpsons universe, a proper name is not available.

The Multi-eyed squirrel was a pink, mutated, multi-eyed squirrel with 38 eyes positioned 360 degrees around his head (counting the two on his sides which pop out later than the rest) and tannish-white chipmunk-like markings on his head and back and sharp white pointy fangs.

History

It mutated at Lake Springfield after Homer dumps an overflowing silo filled with pig excrement into the already heavily polluted lake, causing it to become highly toxic. When chased into the lake by a raccoon, it emerges a mutant. While on a hike together nearby, Bart and Flanders encounter the mutant before it is captured by the EPA and presented to President Schwarzenegger. He fulfilled part of the prophecy describing "One Thousand Eyes", even though it was only 38 eyes.

Behind the Laughter

Toy

The mutant squirrel is seen in the Simpsons Movie figure set "What You Lookin' At?", depicting the scene where he is found by Bart and Ned Flanders during a hike. The squirrel was originally concealed in early pictures of the set, presumably to avoid any leaked plot information, but pictures of the full, unblocked set soon leaked onto the internet before the figure's release.

Altered opening

He also briefly appears in the altered opening sequence of the first episode of the Simpsons' 19th season, "He Loves to Fly and He D'ohs", where he is seen jumping on Bart and being hit by a wrecking ball.
