It took years before the squirels came back.<br /><br />I suspect that trapping will work well for some time. Wandering around hunting squirels with a .22LR is probably going to cost most urban types as much in calories as the catch. But trapping is so rare now, and so unknown, I doubt the animals will get back their caution for some time.<br /><br />I agree on the cats and dogs, if only because they will have nothing to eat. Of course if their owner buys the jumbo bag, they probably have more survival supplies for their pet than they do for themselves.russell1200https://www.blogger.com/profile/16258915475311426433noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2216751897705338056.post-34347327530813386432012-02-03T06:42:45.025-05:002012-02-03T06:42:45.025-05:00I wonder how long small game would last in a grid ...I wonder how long small game would last in a grid down situation in the cities? My guess is it wouldn't be long with cats and dogs lasting about a day longer.PioneerPreppyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09269878017447335944noreply@blogger.com
