';It is illegal to keep, import and release grey squirrels in Britain, unless you have a special license from the Ministry of Agriculture or Secretary of State for Scotland.';





The interesting question would be what are the penalties?


What kind of nut case would catch and release grey squirrels in the UK?
I didn't think there were any.


A friend of mine found an injured one in their garden so they put it in a cage until it recovered with the intention of releasing it into the local park but it died before they got that far. By the way they stink and they are bloody noisy, and they bite!! Just warning you...


If your unsure why not call the RSPCA?
Well, they can get pretty complicated. Basically, if you catch the squirrel you have to spray paint your initials on the belly before releasing them. If you run over one of them, you have to make soup with it.
They come in the endangered species. Almost everything ios in danger; we are so neglectful. Try to save, not perish. GOD BLESS YOU.

The Toronto Star has an interesting article about the past, present and future of the introduced Eastern grey squirrel (Sciurus carolinensis) in the U.K. and Europe. Coming from Canada, the article gives the perspective on a relationship with a native animal many people consider pests. For more ISW posts about the Eastern grey squirrel invasion (and the associated European decline of the red squirrel.
There are too many. Just come to America. It's easier to kill Squirrels.
