@Sue I didn't relaise you got red squirrels in America?
So I logged into 350+ rep this am :O
So this is what it's like to be @OddDeer
I'm an animal lover. I spend a lot of time trying to encourage wildlife into my garden and bird spotting, etc. But I don't really have a problem with well managed hunting
It's often essential, for example if the deer in scotland weren't hunted they'd cause a lot of damage as they have no natural predators
There are wild goats in Snowdonia and again they get hunted as they damage the rare plantlife on some of the crags. Again no natural predators so they need to be kept in check
