Roger Halstead sez:
How about Crows. In the US they used to be (and still are) pests, now
they are protected and there is a hunting season thanks to the
diplomats and Mexico.


Looks like not.
"Crows, although not technically "migratory game birds" (like ducks) can be
hunted in similar fashion in some states. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service
regulations, 50 CFR Chapter 1 20.1 extends regulations to the hunting of
"migratory game birds, and crows." The Act allows states the rights to
establish hunting seasons on crows, with the exception of Hawaii where the only
species present is the severely endangered Hawaiian Crow..."
