I enjoy our little family coming coming up to our patio window every morning to be fed peanuts. I know they damage trees but at the same time they give us enormous and I would miss them sorely if they disappeared.
So, They give enormous pleasure. They're cute. That's why we shouldn't kill them then?
What about rats? Are you content to attract them to your backyard? and not kill them?
What I am trying to point out here is that you should apply the same criteria to all animals whatever they look like. If you accept that is is OK to kill rats, then you have to accept that it is OK to kill squirrels. After all, squirrels are just 'tree rats'. They cause enormous damage to plants and other wildlife and have been implicated in the spread of disease. They are also an introduced species (not native) which is another reason to eradicate them. It was done with the coypu in East Anglia, so why not the Grey Squirrel?
