The squirrels here munch right through them to eat the seeds. It's the funniest thing to see the bushy tail sticking up while the whole animal is in the pumpkin. Sometimes, on the bigger pumpkins, the get the whole body in and poke a head up now and again to see if it's still safe. After they get all the seeds, I smash them in the veggie garden and they enjoy the flesh. Yes, you can make soup, or roast the flesh, but after a squirrel has been at it, who would want to? Besides, every being has a right to eat!

Somebody in my neighborhood is collecting them for her compost pile.....I don't know much about compost but since pumpkins rot, it would work. Right? I like the idea of giving them to the animals as a treat too.
