Oh ours believe we have the right they just don't have the desire
I made a mistake like that with a squirrel once, I learned a lesson that day, as I'm sure this guy did as well.
Someone watched too much Disney! Hopefully, He learned 2 things. One Disney is propaganda and two, tree rats can bite through latex gloves!
Always handy to have a pair of Tillman 850's around.
Should have used these

Had an Aunt that fed squirrels little peanut butter on white bread sandwiches. She raved how cute they were. Until one latched on her booger pickin finger. From the knuckle down teeth shredded to the bone.
She went from the squirrel whisperer to Sandhog …bring your 22 down here , piss on a live trap ! Luckily it wasn’t rabid cause she was to embarrassed to tell anyone what happened. 
I seent it….
My daughters old BF learned that lesson too, at my house. I bet he never grabs another one.
Fifty some years ago, a friend and I went squirrel hunting one afternoon after school. Coming out we ran into a guy we both knew with his hand wrapped up in a bloody tshirt. Said he had been in the woods most of the day and had killed 16 squirrels with his 16ga. The last one wasn't quite dead and did a number on his right hand. Saw him a few days later and he said it took 16 stiches.
