During a walk, my sister took a photo of squirrels with their tails matted and knotted together. I’ve heard of rat kings, but would this be considered a squirrel king?

      Squirrels are vectors for the bubonic plague… So… Yeah, definitely go grab 'em.

        At least in the US you can call your local animal control and either them, or the regional wildlife rehab center will help separate them if possible.
