Culling Grey squirrels.

[five bellies]

I heard that the reds were getting Squirrel flu and were in even greater danger, anyway keep them squirrels off my nuts!!

 

Do flying sqirrels get sqirrel flu ?

[gozzer]

I read somewhere that squirrels were getting high on drugs. Pushers hide their stash by burying it in the hedgerows, the squirrels dig it up and eat it. Maybe it accounts for some of their behaviour.

But squirrels are so cute. We don't have them in Australia, or hamsters or chipmunks. The first time I saw one was in Florida and they were running around with the birds 'begging' for food. Has anyone got a picture of a red squirrel?

There was something on TV a few weeks ago where they were cooking and eating grey squirrels. Apparently a very healthy meat very low in saturated fats. Any one for a squirrel sausage

Top scoff and no mistake. Bit more tricky to skin than a rabbit but better eating.

 

Mmmmmm...treeee raaaaat.

There was a story about squirrels addicted to nicotine from eating fag ends. During a hot, dry Summer a smoking ban was introduced to reduce the fire risk, the little furry addicts went cold turkey and turned a little nasty.
