What is the most humane way to kill a squirrel for eating?!
I need to know the most humane way to kill one, that is in a trap.
I heard the best way is a bat to the back of the neck, but this may be difficult, since its in a metal cage.
I plan to eat them, so poison is out of the question.

put on thick leather gloves, hold it tight, take it out of the cage, then snap it's neck.
i like to tell you first that is illegal to trope a squirrel you will be fine on les you have a trapping license ,not hunting license to kill it hit the animal in the hed and then Skin it, you must get a net an pout it in front of the door and then open the gage it will tangle in the net the hit the net with the animal in one or 2 time, and that is the end
Shoot it in the head, seriously. It is the fastest, humane way.
If you have a 3lb hammer handy that will work. Very quickly smash the head.
take the squirrel and leave it in cold weather, and let it freeze
Nasty...maybe they should do that to you.
shoot it in the head
