1.	Do we usually say that an animal ‘wears’ a tail ? What do we say ?(Think: Does an animal wear a coat ? Consult a dictionary if you like, and find out how ‘wear’ is used in different ways.)
Answer» We usually say that an animal ‘has’ a set of given characteristics rather than saying ‘wear’. The poet, however, uses the word ‘wear’ to render the squirrel an independent personality.
