If it's brown it's down, then we'll figure out what it is.

The man has an incredible story. Definently worth a read. His grandson, Nathan Bedford Forrest III was the first American General killed in action in WW2.

I’m going to check it out, always up to read some awesome history

Is it something new in recent years?

I noticed it while reading the dates booklet.....I dont know 5 or 8 or maybe 10 years ago....I never noticed it or paid attention before. Did some searching online and found some dedicated forums......kinda surprised me

There was a herd of water buffalo wondering around Oglethorpe County, haven't heard anything about them lately.

That was just Oprah, Whoopie, and Rosie, out for a stroll.

Is it something new in recent years?

It's actually been on the books for several years.

It's nationwide, it's the result of a treaty with Mexico.

U.S. wanted Mexico to protect wintering ducks. Mexico needed something from the U.S. to make it look like it wasn't getting pushed around by the U.S on behalf of rich duck hunting gringos. Arguably, crows are migratory, so before you could say "no habla inglés" we had a treaty protecting crows. It's sort of like dove season, the states have a broad window to set their own season.

If you read the entire regulation which is somewhere, you can shoot crows that are involved in crop predation any time, and beings as they are always involved in crop predation, the season isn't much of a handicap.

But yes, I suspect a very high percentage of hunters in GA have no idea there is a crow season.

Should've tazed her...

It looks like she learned a valuable lesson, and the only thing that was hurt is the elk that darwined himself because he was too stupid to read a map...

I bet you're a lot of fun at parties.

Lost a lot of livestock due to irresponsible/stupid "hunters".

She's 14, still a child

Then she doesn't need to be without immediate adult supervision, especial with a high-powered rifle.

Damn, I thought that Jersey milk cow was a whitetail doe for sure.

If you don't know the difference between an elk and a whitetail deer, then you are definitely not responsible enough to be hunting unsupervised, or you should take your lumps like anybody else.

What if the father shot the elk? Oh well its ok, he's just 37 years old, he's a city boy, we'll give him a pass for ignorance.

Lock her up!

You seem a little too attached to that elk
