They are an invasive species and replaced the prettier, native red ones. I think a bounty might cause people to set up indiscriminate traps so wouldn’t go there, but I think we should figure out a way to genocide grey squirrels
ngl, I expected way worse for a sentence starting with “The UK should carry out a genocide”
Putting a bounty on grey squirrels might cause people to breed them just to turn them in, making the problem worse.
They are tastey, just have a generous/unlimited season and bag limit, put out a few pamphlets with recipes and see how ya do.
Grey squirrels are an Aussie revenge plot for sending them European hares
Wrong use of the word genocide but I do agree that people are generally too scared to actually deal with invasive species
