The owner of the restaurant says that it is the “ultimate ethical food” because grey squirrels are free range, low in fat, local to the area and are going to be killed anyway- they're culled in Scotland to protect the native Scottish reds.
Despite PETA protestors wetting their pants over the news, the furry tree rats have sold out every day they've been on the menu.
Personally, I don't see what the fuss is about. A squirrel is no cuter than a lamb or a little piggy-wig (think Babe and Baaa-Raaammm-Ewwwweeee) and if they're going to be killed anyway, at least their deaths are sparing some other little moo-cows or chicky-wicks that would otherwise be on a plate.
