RAVEN—The raven is so rare that
it is hardly worthy of consideration
from the economic standpoint. From
the historical and literary standpoint
the speecies is exceedingly interestng
and important. It is know that the
chief food of the raven is dead fish.
crayfish, snakes and refuse. Hun-
dreds of pellets examined near nests
in Huntington county showed very
little evidence which would
inate the species.
CROW—The' crow has

status of the bird in Pennsylvania.
There is no doubt that in the nesting
season the crow destroys a great
many eggs and young birds, as well
as the young of certain game mam-
mals. The point is that if other food
is easily available crows do not as a
rule destroy valuable gird and animal
life.
frogs and. snakes, snails, various in-
sects and a good deal of vegetable
matter. During the winter when
crows gather in great numbers and
when food may be scarce they doubt-
less do a great deal of damage and
they must be shot or poisoned if the
game birds and mammals are to sur-
vive. Probably no one should want to
see the crow exterminated but this
species has so ably solved its proh-
lems of existence and is so adaptive
that three-fourths of the crows may
be killed without endangering the
standing of the species.
