ANGELFIRE1 Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 White wine with pheasant? I am not keen on red wine with anything, it's white for me every time - given the choice. Angel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ANGELFIRE1 Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 Where in the UK can you shoot wild goat? Scotland, quite a few estates have them, although you would not eat one, they stink to high heaven. I imagine their meat would taste rancid. Angel.

swordfish1 Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 Aren't grey squirrels just old aged red squirrels then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hboo Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 oh my god!! what is wrong with you. they are the cutest little creatures and are so intelligent. Please instead of hating them just watch how clever they are. You can set them tasks to find nuts and they will get to them. They are wild animals and need food just like the birds. please dont hurt the little thing it is only hungry in the cold weather. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rupert_Baehr Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 It depends on how many squirrels you've got. - Rats are also 'cute little creatures and quite intelligent'. - That doesn't mean they're welcome in my attic. Squirrels - like rats and a number of other small wild creatures - carry (and can infect you with) Leptospirosis and Salmonella. As you say, hboo, squirrels are wild animals. They do NOT need humans to feed them. If you put out food for squirrels, you are making a problem for yourself and your neighbours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryedo40 Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 It's not illegal to shoot grey squirrels. Personally though, I couldn't do it. In fact, I'd love to see squirrels visit my garden. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rupert_Baehr Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 Squirrels are a problem where I live. There are predators (though perhaps not quite enough.) If people don't feed the squirrels, the problem is fairly small, but when they do (and some idiots do feed them - in spite of having been asked not to feed wildlife) then the problem soon becomes large. They are pretty good at getting into attics, they crap all over the place when they do and they are also fairly destructive. There is a great deal of wildlife where I live. Some of it is fairly tame (Sand hill Cranes don't bother to get out of your way unless they think you are going to walk on them ) other creatures are not so tame. People are requested not to feed the wildlife (they do a pretty good job of feeding themselves). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
