Concidering when the first post was made, I would assume by now the meat is no longer good. Only thing left to do is grab a shovel and get busy disposing of the carcasses.

IMHO, you shouldn't have shot at the squirrels unless your intentions were for food in the first place. The only exception to this rule is if the critters were an immediate threat to you or your family...rabid, posionious, destroying real property. Other wise, unless you're prepared to get out the pots and pans, don't pull the trigger!

So i guess i shouldn't shoot the pigeons that keep sh!tting all over my backyard and pool right? I don't plan on eating any flying rats, so i guess i'll leave them to nest on my roof top and sh!t freely.

Mojo,

I would see that as a case of being of a hazard to your family. I live in the city too, and there's places where pigeons are thick as ticks on an old hound dog. Thier droppings could be concidered a bio hazard if ya got little ones running around.

Suggestions, because you can't be there all the time, to help thin the flocks down, get a statue of either an owl or hawk. Being skyrats and all they're too stupid to realize they're statues and won't come about.

Oh, and for the record, young pigeon is good to eat. Very tender.

Where the heck are you?! At least we've gone and brough falcons back around here. That's put a major dent in our sky rat infestation. (Although now gulls seem to be taking thier place).

WOW Gold you get accustomed to fighting for the WOW monster, you will spend some time

running away from monsters.

When you get accustomed to fighting for the WOW monster, Buy WOW Gold will spend some time

running away from monsters. You should always run when you face with a monster that is too powerful, or you realize you don't

have enough Health or Mana to fight for the current monster. In this situation, you'd better to give up WOW money and run

away. Monsters will only chase you for a specific distance before giving up and returning to their original spot. But in

instances, monsters won't stop their chase.

It is well worth that some monsters can heal themselves, it just for some Lotro Gold will

interrupt heals or finish them off quickly with powerful attacks before they can heal. Typically, stun abilities are the best

to use for this situation. Some WOW monsters cast buffs on themselves to make them more powerful like the players. You

discover this by watching them buff up or by reading the combat lob and screen for results of the fight. In fact, you should

take notice of your opponents that you want to gain rewards. Whenever it is possible for the WOW monster, you can use a

dispel ability on the monsters to remove their buffs. In addition, monsters often have special attacks which will place a

"debuff" on your character.

For the WOW monster Spellcasting, like Mages, are very dangerous, as WOW Gold sale can do a

considerable amount of damage in a short time. Fortunately, they are typically weaker than monsters that rely on physical

attacks, thus more quickly dispatched. First, you can attack them, and try to stun them if it is possible to prevent them

from casting spells. Some WOW monsters will attempt to run away when they are near death, you often in the direction of their

comrades. You should use abilities that prevent them from moving or slow them down or simply finish them off quickly as soon

as possible.

Kaufen WOW Gold is difficult for some players to fight for the WOW monsters that are a

good deal higher in the level. The chance for them to hit and damage is reduced, while the chance for monsters to hit and

damage is increased. The high level monsters will bring you more benefits like WOW gold, infrequent and exclusive items and

equipments.

So there's no other reasons AT ALL to shot at small game/varmins?? Why do big game hunters go after cape buffalo and lions, then stuff em? it's obvious they didn't and probally will not consume the meat. Would you eat the disgusting urban pigeons that I shoot? Isn't it good meat?

I shoot rock pigeons and starlings to keep from literally scraping bird sh!t off of everything I own. English house sparrows I kill just because they kill other prettier, more melodic birds. None of these birds are native to this continent, so it's no big deal for me to do the best I can at wiping them out as much as possible in my neighborhood.

I do eat the squirrels I kill unless they are acting "strange" like the kill with my 2300. Either that squirrel had brass balls or was rabid. I am thinking more likely rabid. I warned my next door neighbor what happened and he took the dog immediately to the vet because rabies can be passed by consumption.

So, everybody has different reasons on here for doing what they do. If somebody was killing squirrels because they were trying to get in his attic why bother with eating or not eating them? Either way you are saving something of yours.

If you kill a squirrel just because you hate squirrels, fine, but just please make sure it is in season and you are following the proper game laws. Then feed them to your dogs, sell the tails to mepps, or put their tiny little skulls on your fence as decoration. This is the US. I might not like what you legally do or say, but I will defend it with my life for you to have that freedom. Just follow the rules is all I ask..

Chairgun says with what your shooting....at 25 yards you are retaining 8.5 FPE. That should be more then enough to dispatch tree rats in quick order
