A hawk never did never will. I like hawks

But there are some around here that shoot them on sight

I am thinking if I ever have another cow tag I would focus on a calf lol. Something that would be more edible than a old cow.

The leg shank meat is like tenderloin.

So you're actually saying there's a very good chance you will shoot a methhead, unless you're gone from home almost all the time, limiting your chances to catch one stealing from you.

They are not good for the herd.

Bats, they move to fast and very little shooting light.

Interesting the way the modern age has the two legged animals trained to think about what they would not do. In the Kennedy era it was thinking about all the things that a human could do if they could dream it. Someday a thread should appear in what you would like to shoot. For me, I would go for a Caudipteryx, a dinosaur bird thing. Find a box of John Olin's Lubaloy BB's in 12 gauge and wonder if it would be better fried in a Wagner #8 or in BBQ.

There are several species game and other wise that I would not plan to shoot or hunt.

A coromant. If you get it, how will you know it's dead?

Not even sure I understand the question.

All animals are fair game given the right situation.

They are dead if ever in my pond.

You right on that I feel the same way. Song birds and birds of prey are protected by fed law. They are out from any shooting. Any other thing that is protected other wise, cats are fair game if out in the woods or trap line.
