The Exmoor Squirrel Project says landowners can trap the animals and restaurants can cook them.
Ms Hosegood said the grey squirrel has caused an estimated £40m worth of damage to UK trees
Acting manager Kerry Hosegood said the grey squirrel was "wreaking havoc" on UK woodlands, costing about £40m a year in tree damage. "Over 150 years, it's [been] wiping out so much of our nature and our woodlands aren't able to repair themselves quick enough," said Ms Hosegood."This isn't something that we like to go out and do and just target greys and say 'Let's remove all of them.' It's a very serious project and there are a lot of managed plans in place as to how they are actually dealt with.
