Anger over wild squirrel meat on sale in north London
A north London grocery store is committing "wildlife massacre" by selling squirrel meat, an animal welfare group has claimed.
Vegetarians International Voice for Animals (Viva) accused a branch of Budgens of supporting a "barbaric and needless cull" of grey squirrels.
An independently-owned branch in Crouch End has been selling the meat for four months.
Shop owner Andrew Thornton said he sold the meat for "sustainability reasons".
