Answer: D) Personification.

Step-by-step explanation: personification is a figure of speech that consists in giving human characteristics to non human objects (or animals). In the given sentence we can see an example of the use of personification, because it says that the squirrel (a non human object), tried to read the speaker thoughts and wondered if he was a threat or a friends (wonder is a human characteristic).
