I never brake for squirrels. I might cause an accident. I do know that in a collision between a car and a squirrel, that the car is undamaged. Besides, if you brake, the squirrel will only reverse direction and run back to get hit anyway.
While I know they are God’s creatures and I do appreciate the minor role they play in the propagation of trees; it’s not like they are an endangered species. They are not worth the risk of injuring myself. I do hope that if it does happen (about once every 10 years), it’s a “clean kill.” Besides roadkill is part of the food chain for other animals.
