Squirrels do it for me all the time.
Take your acorn. Bury it a couple of inches deep in a pot of soil. When the roots fill the pot, plant in the soil in final position. watch it grow for the next 100 years or so. Don't plant within 30feet of a house.
I spend more time pulling up squirrel planted ones.
