Squirrel

Skin the body, cut off the feet and head, clean the inside and wash the
body well. Let the body soak overnight in water to cover, to which 1/2 tsp.
salt has been added. Boil about 10 minutes, then discard this water. Boil
in fresh water about 2 hours or until done, and cool. Bone, and cut up the
meat into small pieces, saving the broth. Cut up one small onion and 1
large or 2 small potatoes and add to the broth, Return the meat to the
broth also and cook until vegetables are done. Season to taste. This is an
old-time recipe. In today's cooking, one may add whatever vegetable you
wish to the soup.

And Chile-Heads add several hot chile of your choise :-)
