Q: Can I eat crows?

A: Angler & Hunter TV host Mike Miller responds:

Yes! Crows are an overlooked hunting opportunity. What makes them a great option? They respond well to calls, the season is open year-round in most areas, and they are a challenge to shoot. But above all, the meat they provide is drastically underrated. My cameraman can attest to that as he indulged in a great crow fajitas cook-up we did and of course my favorite recipe is crow creole!
