Default What to do with grey squirrels - M Ogilvie pro hunt nut and extremist, adviser for SNH suggests we should eat squirrels!

Fanciful and whimsical, perhaps, but not impossible and far from
inedible, I'm assured. That being said, I'm not sure how fnaciful or
whimsical it is, after all dormice and guinea pigs are eaten in many
parts of the world, and rabbits and hares, which are more or less
closely related to squirrels, are very popular here in Britain so why
should squirrel casserole taste so different?

From todays Times, "The famous Wild Boar Hotel in Cumbria is offering free
squirrel pancakes to diners. They have lots after a cull and are serving
them Peking Duck style apparently.
