Urban squirrels

if it was zombie time, I could get a lot of squirrel and rabbit with my 22 in my front and back yard, at least enough to eat for a week or two. Never cleaned or butchered any game, so I'd obviously need to look up some you tube videos first...

I?ve eaten my fair share of squirrels. Not sure what the urban ones would taste like because I?m guessing their diets are probably different than their backwoods cousins.
I have as well along with bunnies.Originally Posted by ray1970
evergreen forest squirrels don’t taste nearly as good as a nice eastern hardwood forest squirrel. That and watching them carry off a chicken wing from the trash can

I think the squirrels in my neighborhood eat a steady diet of dog food.
Dog makes a fine meal, ate some once in AZ on a Quail hunt near the Mexican border. It was highly seasoned and covered in BBQ sauce.
We have lots of squirrels and little bunnies all over where I live. I have had pot luck stew that I am told had squirrels, rabbits, crow, snake and pigeon in it with native root vegetables. It tasted like salty dirty water.

I'd eat them, however I don't often see them in my neighborhood In Eastern Aurora. Saw them a lot in my old neighborhood off of Mississippi and Tower. Everyone had squirrel-sized holes in their trashcans. I guess it is a form of recycling right?
Squirrel gumbo is the best. I think I'd rather have squirrel or rabbit in my gumbo than chicken and sausage or shrimp.
I have four that I keep an eye on and have been baiting to get into the right position. Turns out a squirrel will easily "jump the string" when using a blow gun, so I'm going to have to just get a pellet rifle.
Anyway, I'm not waiting for the end times. I've got my squirrel/rabbit hot wings recipe all lined up. Just need to dedicate a day to actually have a successful hunt so I can get them all at the same time.

Um... is anyone here saying they have a use?
BTW Its the right season for harvesting tails for fishing flies.
