Heya Suz! In Missouri, they eat em! No kidding :) One day at work, I was assisting in a surgery and the vet's buddy was chatting about the squirrel that they had for dinner the night before. I guess it was almost as big as the cat that we had on the table (ewwww!) I asked the next day if they were serious or just fooling with the Yankee :) He couldn't believe that I hadn't eaten squirrel, said he guessed that up in Massachusetts we prolly just had scrawny little squirrels not worth bothering with. If I go back to visit during squirrel season (never knew there was such a thing!) he's going to have us over for some realheman cookin'... snappin turtle soup, squirrel, rabbit, and whatever else he can catch or shoot or however you git these varmints LOL I wonder if squirrel tastes like rabbit, which I hear tastes like chicken.....
