The squirrels and rabies thing is an urban myth. There has never been a case of squirrel-to-human transmission of rabies in the United States:

Marmots are a different thing, even though they're technically sciurids.

Squirrel meat used to be a great American culinary tradition. Check out some of James Beard's cookbooks. Every edition of the "Joy of Cooking" except the most recent one has had a diagram of how to skin a squirrel. Check it out in used bookstores sometime (the footwear of the woman in the diagram varies from edition to edition). I don't know how squirrel meat somehow got associated with rednecks outside the south. It's one of the few uniquely American dishes. Other nations cook squirrel too, but the particularly meaty grey squirrel is native to the US.

Plague is not a myth. But it's mostly ground squirrels in the southwest, and even then it's quite rare. They are cute little critters here. They are smaller than the standard gray tree squirrel.

Squirrel on a stick...very tasty.

Here we have prarie dogs that carry the plague. Cute as all get out until one bites you and you drop dead within a few days. Little bastards....

My favorite part of this video are when the mom say "Isn't he cute" talking about a skinned and headless squirrel and when she add nut in her recipe saying we know how squirrel love nuts!

 

[Seaside]

People eat anything, I don't blame the lady in that video.
Never able to understand being shot and skinned rodent can be cute though.

A squirrel is just a bushy-tailed tree rat.
