I'VE BEEN SEEING LOTS OF GROUND SQUIRRLES, NOW I KNOW THERE IS NO SEASON FOR SQUIRRLES IN SAN DIEGO, BUT I HEARD U CAN HUNT GROUND SQUIRRLES. IS THIS TRUE? ??? ??? ???
 
Yes you can hunt ground squirrels. They are considered rodents (varmint) from everything I've read and done. Squirrels as it pertains to the regs is "tree squirrels". Blast away my friend!!!
