There was an episode of Columbo with Johnny Cash where Columbo eats chili and doesn’t know it is squirrel.
There are no shortages of squirrels. Hillbilly Granny probably even ate their legs

If dogs could climb trees there would be!
Nothing wrong with squirrel.
Had it a LOT as a kid.
Me and my brother and dad would do Sunday afternoon squirrel hunts while mom got the fixins ready.
Getting back to the house dad had an old picnic table set up for cleaning with a spike in the table and a hook for the hose.
From the tree to the bowl of egg to the flower/salt/pepper breading bowl to the pot of sizzling Crisco was usually about two hours.
Fried squirrel, fried squash and eggplant, rice, bread and gravy.
Man that was good.
