The National Parks Board (NParks) announced on Monday (Feb 23) that it will resume crow shooting from the second week of March as part of its efforts to actively manage the crow population.It said that public complaints against crows have risen sharply from about 5,000 cases in 2020 to about 15,000 cases last year.Over the same period, feedback on crow aggression has surged from over 460 cases in 2020 to more than 2,000 cases in 2025.In a Facebook video posted on Monday, Minister for National Development Chee Hong Tat said that if the crow population is not brought under control, there will be «more and more» crow-related attacks, thereby affecting the safety of residents.He said: «We should not wait for this to happen before we take action. »I have therefore asked NParks to bring back crow shooting as one of the measures to reduce the crow population in Singapore." NParks said it intensified its multi-pronged crow management efforts after shooting operations ceased in 2020. This includes crow trapping and removal, as well as nest removal. Read more
