Native species. The screwed up thing is that there are more now than there were 400 years ago. No real predators with the exception of hunters. Coyotes eat the little ones sometimes.
I shot one at close range with a BB gun 2 nights ago (enough pumps to kill a squirrel) and it whirrled around, bucked a little, looked at me and then went back to eating my yard. Dogs have even given up on them.
