The Department of Environment and Natural Resources has recently published a management plan for the invasive crows and feral pigeons in Bermuda. 

Both the American Crow (Corvus brachyrhynchos) and the feral Pigeon (Colomba livia domestica) are classified as a pest species under the Protection of Bermuda Act (1975). 

The main objective of each of these management plans is to reduce the number of each species to minimize their negative impacts on Bermuda's fragile island ecosystems, public health and agriculture. 

These management plans includes historically overviews, local distribution, impacts and and details of the management strategy. 

These plans are evolving documents and will be revised periodically.
