Default RSPCA secures conviction for squirrel drowning

According to the Daily Mail

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/arti...-squirrel.html

a person who trapped and drowned a grey squirrel because it was raiding bird
feeders in his garden pleaded guilty to a charge under the Animal Welfare
Act 2006.

The RSPCA was apparently tipped off by a neighbour who observed the act.
