And natural resources.

There are women that had feed squirrels. I was just watching a video on youtube of a guy that hand feeds raccoons. My mom always told us to stay away from the squirrels because they can be dangerous if you corner them. 

There are the tame ones and the not tames ones. The one in my room was not tame by any means. 

I asked the guy with four fingers who tried to feed the not tame ones.

Squirrels are a major pest. the red ones are ok, the grey ones should all be shot.

How true Dennis-  The grey ones are especially good to eat. I leave you with old proverb.

Man with four fingers give good advice on wild squirrel, man see horse with five legs need glasses.

Back in our old neighbourhood we had squirrels, muskrats, Norway rats, roof rats, mice, raccoons, the occasional skunk, and a beaver. And that was in a city.

Now in the rural north, a few chipmunks, some deer (white tail or mule), the occasional moose and rare black bear.

This strange creature is an aardvark. which is an Afrikaans word which means earth pig. Their closest relatives are elephants, although quite distantly.

I use them for target practice with a soft pellet gun. They get the message pretty quick and clear out. We have some very small cute ones now and I leave them alone. We have red, black, brown, gray, big and small. It is the big gray ones I do not like. Although they most likely are the ones that are native to this area.

Looks meaty. Roast them over a fire. My own proverb:

"When a farmer grows wheat, wheat is what he eats. When the locusts come to devour it all he eats the locusts. "

guinea fowls are also good target practice as are Egyptian geese.
