    It will be interesting to see if the PGC shows up to question these folks about there trap-and-transfer of squirrels.  I imagine doing so would almost be right up there with harboring a song bird as a pet.

    Everything I say can be fully substantiated by my own opinion.

    Authorities in Maine and New Hampshire are reporting vicious attacks by purple squirrels.
    If you see a purple squirrel, do not approach just call 911!

    Look to the heavens and thank God everyday that hunting is such a grand part of our lives.

    Krish Pillai, a professor at Lock Haven University of Pennsylvania, commented that "This is not good at all. That color looks very much like Tyrian purple. It is a natural organobromide compound seen in molluscs and rarely found in land animals. The squirrel has too much bromide in its system possibly from all the bromide laced frack water it's been drinking. I would raise the alarm. This could mean bladder cancer for humans down the road."


    Hmmmmmm....

    That's about the same as Bill Frist giving his "diagnosis" on Terry Shiavo, after seeing her on video.

    I was relived to see that this specimen was not of the Glaucomys-Sabrinus variety , because I wouldn't be able to listen to Flying Purple People Eater anymore resulting in nightmares and heavy medication !

    Carniverous, purple flying Squirels will be a kick arse military asset when we invade Canada.

    Yes, assuming they don't already have them and this is just a deserter that crossed the border.

     In 1775- wasnt just a few guys out after a binge night either- we meant it-  It was during the Rev. war and we tried to get Canada too- our butt got kicked so ya dont hear bout it much. Like any war , ya never hear bout the loosers.

    my cousins friends neighbors uncle's boss's friend told me they came in with the same shipment of mountain lions the PGC stocked in the mid 80's. He was there to see both of the releases.




    Honest.
