There's quite a few of them in this part of ID. (Clearwater County, about half way between Orofino and Lewiston)
Nothing like the south but there's pockets of them.
I have about a dozen living on my place so I thought I'd see what they taste like. Never killed or ate a Squirrel before.
I also have a Grouse I killed yesterday and I plan to shoot a Cottontail either this evening or early tomorrow. They should be edible after that hard freeze last week.
Gonna make me a multi-meat pot pie. smile
