Around here, most species of tree squirrel are protected.
Ground squirrels are all that we can safely shoot. (Some of the unprotected tree squirrels are visually similar to protected species.)
They are vermin. Ground squirrels are left where they die, or gathered up as bait. .... for more squirrels. That's right. They're scavenging cannibals. We use their dead brothers as bait for more squirrel popping goodness.
