Where I hunt the squirrel population grows unchecked.
Perhaps not, there is a term called "Carrying Capacity" that basically states that the land can only support so many animals. I have a fairly large back yards and there are time when I notice about six, at one time. I though about thinning them down but instead, watch them from year to year. At any one time, I mostly count three. We have a Peregrine Falcon that occasionally gets one but I suspect that most, just move on as they mature. ……

There have been rare ties when I have had to dispatch yard squirrels do to other reasons. …..

Be Safe !!!
