Shame on you!!! Did you eat bones and fur too? It seems to me, they can't deliver much meat,
Though I know that in many areas squirrels are considered "vermin", still the idea of killing any creatures for sport is abhorrent to my animal-loving sensibilities too, Christina

Sorry, Bob! "Shame on you" was just kidding. I myself simply wouldn't be able to kill an animal, yes But I also don't see any wrong in hunting as I am a meat- and fisheater too. I just let others do the work, as I was raised up in a region, where you rarely meet hunters and wasn't taught to do it myself, just to buy the ready meat. So it would be hypocritical to criticise people who hunt or/and slaughter.
Enjoy your next squirrel or whatsoever with fur and bones.

Always the nit picker. I presume the word slaughter was used in the context of an abattoir.
I grew up in rural environs, and it was an important dietary ritual to hunt in the fall of the year for deer to fill the freezer.
It was part of the ritual to make sure folks who couldn't hunt and depended on a supply of venison to augment their fixed income, have their needs addressed. Kind of a neighborly obligation, if you will.
And I think the humane harvest of a creature is better than the starvation winter deaths, and is this conservationist's attempt to minimize the ugly extremes associated with species overpopulation.
A synopsis of my real feelings.
No criticism intended or implied, just my ramblings. Perhaps two cents worth.

YES, humane culling is one thing, as is supplying meat to the Needy by humane means It's sport-killing / trophy-hunting for Blood Lust and EGO that I cannot stomach, Mike

I agree fully with Candy. It's a big difference between hunting just for pleasure or winning a trophy and the killing because of the need to get one's meat. The first I detest profoundly, the second is just how nature functions. All predators kill and are killed themselves, but they don't kill to win a champioship.
Back to general dog conversation. Why don't wie kill dogs? Because they are our friends and we - a far a I know - usually don't eat our friends. Though some people do eat dogs as well in our culture as in others. In my opinion if someone thinks he needs to do this for his necessary supply it depends on how he kills. In certain cultures the hang dogs up and suffocate them slowly so they suffer a horrible death. Those people do this with the crazy delusion, that the meat will be much more tender after this.
