I fry them up and then slow cook them in a mulligan. Talk about good eating.

I like fluffy tails, man. And pomegranates are a pain to eat.

any squirrel that gets its ass kicked by a bass deserved to be removed from the circle of life.

LOL, I don't care for them, but it is hard not to be fully impressed by their brass!

They like to get in your attic and eat the wiring.

This will kill them and sometimes you.

We’ve been using the wrong Bass lures all this time?

I’ve seen largemouth bass strike baby ducks.

I was laying in my hammock one day, and I see this red squirrel walking along the top of the fence towards me, and he knew I was there perhaps five feet away, and kept pausing, staring at me, chattering, twitching his tail, but...I didn’t move a muscle.

So, he’s up there doing that annoying red squirrel thing, and I snapped my fingers.

If you had stuck him in a 105 mm howitzer shell and fired it, it wouldn’t have disappeared from view any faster than that squirrel did!

For aggressiveness per square cm of flesh, they must rank up there with chickadees and honey badgers!

"Lo and behold, it's this poor little red squirrel in the middle of all this spawning activity," Myers said. "The bass appeared to be coming up and nipping at it."

Fuzzy-tailed rat.

I prefer that nature takes its course. Especially when it comes to red all squirrels.

Fixed it for ya!

As far as I'm concerned squirrels are just fuzzy-tailed rats.

It’s almost impossible to tell a squirrel from a rabbit when it’s fried on a plate.

Saw a largemouth bass take a ducking. Later, I saw momma duck get taken by a snapping turtle. Head came off first.

They are vermin, nothing more than rats with fluffy tails.

Haha! Yes. Rodentia, literally.
