Hey gang

Just want to post this for all the folks in CA. Thanks to @SacramentoSam I realized fox squirrels are now classified as tree squirrels and has a season. They were specifically spelled out as invasive with no limit nor season before but that changed this year. Here is the news letter and there is only "tree squirrels" under small game section, and tree squirrels includes all tree dwelling squirrels including fox squirrel.

CDFW News | General Tree Squirrel Season to Open Sept. 10

wildlife.ca.gov

"Four types of tree squirrels are game species in California. The Western gray squirrel and the Douglas squirrel are both native to California while the Eastern fox squirrel and the Eastern gray squirrel have been introduced and not native to the state."



So don't shoot them on public land out of season in CA!

I've got a squirrel that has taken up residence under the hood of one of my cars, I don't give a darn if it's got an exemption from the pope, it's gonna die if I have to kill all of it's brethren to get it, then so be it.

That's funny as hell right there, and I would do the same!
