The cobra problem but applied to squirrels would be crazy.

Imagine some some town overrun with a plague of squirrels.

I mean... Lotta squirrels and coyotes by me. Can eat a squirrel but I can't bring myself to hunt coyote. Like even if I save the pelt then what? Not gunna eat it. I'm just leaving skinned dogs everywhere?
