Squirrel experts in Devon which is the last English county before you reach Cornwall want to slaughter every grey squirrel so that they can introduce the red squirrel. They blame the greys on damaging the trees. Humans interfering on the business f animals never woks.

"Apparently the Red Squirrel Liberation Front is asking for heavy artillery to blow those Grey squirrels back across the borders "
Pine Martens have put their backing behind the request. The badgers have abstained. Currently waiting to see what way the otters vote. |

Apparently the mortal enemy of the grey squirrel is the great white shark. Technology has been introduced to mesh the sheer inhumane evil of the great white shark with the ability of the salt water crocodile (also not a terribly friendly critter) to roam on land.
Let's introduce this chimera to Devon and see what happens. |

Grey squirrels are American imports and have no respect for the indigenous reds. They are notoriously brash, loud and have an elevated sense of entitlement. |

Obviously the solution is to introduce creatures from elsewhere!

"The pandas have hinted that they may support the greys. "
Breaking news .... Caribou and Bison have signed a resolution supporting their American cousins and a Racoon gunship has been sighted on the English Channel.
This could get ugly. |

It’s DEFRA that want the Greys numbers reduced. Greys carry Squirrel Pox, if a Red Squirrel catches it, it makes them very ill/ fatally so which declines their numbers. If someone finds and ailing grey squirrel or an abandoned baby grey Squirrel then it is illegal to return it to the wild after you’ve nursed it back to health, therefore if an organisation like SSPCA/RSPCA get involved they have no choice but to euthanise it.
In America where they come from they are hunted and eaten. But you have already had that argument.
I’m not so sure that GS do damage to the trees as after all, Deer do too, but they do eat more than their fair share of food than the Reds can get.

I would love to see red squirrels but could they be a bit less mean with the greys, how about some nuts laced with squirrel contraceptives so they bow out gracefully rather than all out butchery. I can imagine that wouldnt be difficult to manage at all.  |

We could end up squirrel handmaids in little red cloaks, confined to the dray, forced to breed with the highest ranked greys in the woods.

Unfortunately we will always have to interfere with nature, trying to control the damage that's been caused from interfering in the first place

Tbf the natural order of things we shouldn't have grey squirrels as the we're smuggled into the country and they wiped out the red squirrel population.
So leaving animals to their business will cause the extinction of our native red squirrels, so why not restore the natural balance? |

They've stripped a hell of a lot of trees in the woods behind my house. Though the one immediately behind my garden is a sycamore that's covered in ivy and they have been nesting in that for years. There is a new set of young ones every year and they have never stripped any bark from that one. Great fun watching the young ones on their first ventures out. |
