Paiute traps are great squirrel killers. If you're clever enough to be able to make your own cord It's even easy to make without tools or industrially manufactured anything.

My friend told me it tastes like beef. She had a chunk cut off her, cooked up, and fed to her. Not the choicest of cuts, and it was fatty and gristley, but tasted like beef nonetheless, she said.

So now you know.
