Squirrel 'Terrorising' Welsh Town Bites the Dust!

A Grey squirrel, being routinely fed by a woman in her garden in Buckley, Flintshire, ended up biting her and several neighbours. The beast was christened 'Stripe', after the chomper in the film, Gremlins (https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2021/dec/28/stripe-the-bitey-squirrel-meets-a-sad-end-after-terrorising-welsh-town). Eventually, the woman decided she had no choice and invested in a humane trap. The Royal Society for the Protection of Animals (RSPCA) were called in and transferred the beast to one of their cages. The RSPCA then had to kill the animal as, since 2019, it has been illegal to release a Grey squirrel back into the wild in the UK. The Prince of Wales only approves of Red squirrels.
