Talk:Squirrelanoids (2012 TV series)/@comment-25652270-20170620144028

I don't know if the whole reason they mutated further was due to Raphael's mutagenic influence. When they first incountered the primary squirrel, it leapt into the homeless man's mouth. When the two squirrels were running around the lair, one went into the dojo and the other went into Mikey's room. Only one squirrel leapt into Raph's mouth and thus doubled itself, bringing the count to three squirrels.

There were two squirrels total when one leaps into Raph's mouth, one was being duplicated in Raph, the other was being guarded by Splinter. The one that Splinter guards still turns into a Squirrelanoid, that squirrel only had homeless man origins.
