A friend of mine kills and cooks grey squirrels from his garden, is this legal in the UK?

He literally shoots them with an air rifle, skins them, and stews them as if it were any other meat. Aside from the fact it is completely gross…I am pretty sure you can’t hunt and kill wild animals in the UK, not to mention eat them. Or is this legal, provided you don’t sell the the food to other people?

3 Week Old Baby Squirrel Help? Food related question. Advice?

A baby squirrel that I have begun to raise so he may be released in the wild has been eating Whiskas Catmilk/kitten milk for about a week and a half. He looks perfectly normal besides his stools seem a tiny bit soft (but definitely normal colored, along with the urine). Should he be having the Esbialic formula instead? Should I go immediately to the store tomorrow to buy him some to ensure a better chance of survival? He has been eating every two hours. He looks about three to four weeks old, eyes closed. Advice? He is sleeping soundly in a fleece blanket over a heating pad which has temperature control (at a mere 140 degrees at the moment). The squirrel is EXTREMELY active and runs around as much as he possibly can while out of his blanket. What do you suggest?

What is the weirdest food you have ever eaten???

the weirdest i have had was squirrel and deer……….both pretty good……..lol

This may sound stupid but I need advice on what to do!?

So, my neighbors moved in our neighborhood just a few weeks ago, they seemed pretty nice and stuff so i didnt have any worrys. But all of the sudden they just start setting out traps for various animals and what not. Prior to them coming here I kept a bird feeder outside. It attracted all kinds of animals, squirrels, skunks, birds, whatever. But he just traps them all and take them to some unknown place! The squirrels simply eat the food and go about their squirrel business, the bird usually stay there all day, and the skunks eat in the morning. I like all of the animals and it annoys me when they just take them away. The skunks havent sprayed a single thing in over a year. What should I do??? I really dont think calling anyone would help, and even so i dont want to ddeal with the fuss. Should i deactivate the traps with a stick? Im not sure its the best idea but im proper pissed off about the whole situation. Please help!

Does deer food attract Fox or Coyotes?

I feed the local deer in my woods a mixture that i found they really love, it is a mixture of equal parts deer pellets, corn kernels coated in molasses and then double that amount in cracked corn,(to sorta coat the molasses in fine corn powder so it wont clump in my feeder and jam it up) will it attract fox or coyotes? I have only witnessed Deer, crows, squirrels and the wayward coon eating from the feeder. The Turkeys will pick up the corn from the ground under and around the feeder but I have never seen Fox or coyote there or even seen tracks but I did see some scat that looked like dog but there are really no strays in the area that I have ever seen. What would attract Coyote and Fox?

Do any “song birds” live in Los Angeles?

I just bought a bird feeder and bird food for songbirds today at a hardware store. They obviously couldn’t answer this so I was wondering if you guys could please?

I would just go with the conventional sit and wait atop my roof, but theres never any good birds! If i get lucky, ill get maybe a few squirrels and crows, but never any exciting birds. Los Angeles bird hunting is far too hard :(
