House Crow (Corvus splendens), family Corvidae, order Passeriformes, Rajasthan, India

This species of crow lives only around human habitation, there are no known independently living populations. The house crow is therefore more dependent on mankind than house sparrows or house mice.

Have you seen a House Crow (Corvus splendens)?

I have seen one in nature

I have seen one in captivity

I have seen a dead one/a taxidermy

I don't know if I've seen one in person

I've only seen photos, never seen in person

I've never heard of this animal
