Default Crow's ?

Just curious! Has anyone ever eaten crow before? Or is it ok to eat crow? My buddy asked me that question and I didn't know what to say. Thanks

I've eaten crow MANY times, but it was FIGURATIVELY rather than LITERALLY.......

Seriously, I've eaten woodchuck, beaver, coon, snapping turtles, several varieties of songbirds and probably some strange stuff I don't remember, but never crow, nor do I KNOW anyone who ever has..

HOWEVER, I was on a crow hunting forum on the net once and there were people who had eaten them and there were several recipes... Find yourself a crow forum and you'll probably find someone who eats them..

you can eat them, but they make better fertilizer than table fare...

think of it this way. it won't kill you to try it. i'd be willing to give anything a shot at least once (except coyote). or if you want to instead, prepare it without anyone seeing you prepare it, and tell your buddy it's bbq'd duck that you made for him!

When my dad was a kid in WWII Germany, they use to cook crow over an open fire and trade it with prisoners for chocolate they had in their packs. The prisoners thought it was fantastic. But, then again, they didn't get much meat so they were desparate.

I'll have to ask my dad if they ate it themselves. They were pretty poor so it wouldn't surprise me if they took advantage of any fresh meat they could come across.

Crow hunting is fun. Awesome for kids. All you need is a call, good camo and the ability to stay still. They have keen eyes and they're skittish.
