Now wait a minute here... you mean you'd blow the head off a
cute, furry little vertebrate just to protect a little patch
of glorified lettuce ? It sounds to me like your plants are
getting a little too big for their britches insofar as the food
chain is concerned. In effect, they've moved on to some genuine
carnivory with a little help from a friend.
I'm rooting for the squirrels. :^D
