I'm sure that somewhere in the regs that this is illegal or will be soon in WA. As in "Thou shalt not have a line in the water and a .22 in in hand simultaneously. If apprehended thou shalt loose all hunting and fishing privilege's indefinitely and be subject to a fine not less than $XXXX."

Yeah, you're probably right, it feels like a recipe for a legal mess.

I'd bet the WA Fish and Wildlife folks would have a field day with that. The way the author wrote it, sounds like some fun though

For all those Missouri Mules out there, no doubt. Personally, as a biologist, I feel that squirrels are just rats with hairy tails! Pigeons are just rats with feathers.

You know the story about how the Western Grey Squirrels became protected, don't you?

I know the scientific reason.

One thing is for sure: there is a huge abundance of western grays here. We actually love 'em. Beautiful and fun to watch in their shenanigans. They do no damage and cause no problems. We are happy to leave them alone. It's the gray diggers that damage the vehicles and raid the gardens.

Oh, and we have hybrids between the two that are also a problem.

What's for supper from the garden? If nothing it wasn't me!
