WATCH THE HANDS! 😃😃 Shut in while their enclosure is being cleaned, the clever squirrels decide not to wait for the bowl to be put in the clean space, and take matters into their own paws!

Update: Please feel free to complain to Amazon Prime about this!

It has been bought to my attention that episode six of Amazon Prime's "Clarkson's Farm" featured a "Dare" night at Jeremy Clarkson's pub & restaurant which included the offscreen killing and skinning and onscreen cooking and eating of grey squirrels and being served as "Crispy Squirrel". I do not know which other items were on this frankly macabre menu and quite honestly I don't want to know. I have forgiven Jeremy Clarkson several times for some of his more tasteless antics but this one I cannot and can only assume it was staged as yet another of his "stunts" to to garner attention, good or bad as either help to swell his and Amazon prime's coffers...
unfortunately "Clarkson's Farm" has a huge following and this will send the wrong kind of message to that audience in that killing grey squirrels is acceptable and you know quite funny really, and anyway they are killing the reds...
Well, my current opinion of him and the show's producers and writers rhymes with "stunts" and no, I won't be following the series any more... 😡

OUR LICENCE IS UP FOR RENEWAL!

The visit to two site, one hour's drive apart, and filling in the paperwork, by the wildlife specialist vet whom we work with, cost us £530. :(
All the paperwork (our forms and the vet forms, as well as photos) for the two sites has now been sent off to Natural England. But the hole in our budget remains. If you could help us to fill it, we would be really really grateful.
