A small game licence tag
also permits you to hunt American crow, brown-headed
cowbird, common grackle, house sparrow, red-winged
blackbird or starlings and other animals not scheduled
under the Fish and Wildlife Conservation Act, 1997 (e.g.,
groundhogs)**.
im just trying to wrap my head around what makes it legal?
so because its not scheduled under the fish and wildlife conversation act,
i can hunt it anytime i wish, with no limits.
For example.. Porcupine?
also im interested in hunting crows as i want to practice for waterfowl and i am new at this,
do i really need decoys for crows? i seem to get them alot, (and hawks) when i try to call
in coyotes with my ecaller, would using decoys make that big of a difference?
thank you for your help
US citizens are NOT allowed to hunt crows in Ontario -- I would suggest you buy an electronic crow caller -- maybe 12 decoys --hide well and shoot fast -- best to be on a flight line not where the roost or feed but some where along the route -- fence lines are best if you can stay hidden --you might have to build a decent blind that they don't recognize as one --use shot birds as decoys --GOOD LUCK
Crow decoys are very useful and can be had at the Dollar Store in a few weeks as they sell them for Holloweve...
They cause a lot of damage, it's not that they have low numbers.. Just find a roost and TRY to count the number of birds that come in... There is a reason that a group of crows are called a "Murder of crows". They have been known to kill lambs, calf, and fawns while ewe, cow, or doe is giving birth.
I didn't realise that crows are that bad.
I guess this:
