dc.description.abstractStudy on “Ecology of House Crow (Corvus splendens) and Jungle Crow (Corvus macrorhynchos) in Agricultural Landscape” was carried out from January 2011 to July 2012 at Anand Agricultural University campus, Anand city and adjoining villages in central Gujarat, India. Food of crows was classified into two major categories viz., animal & plant matter. Jungle Crow mainly consumed animal matter (56.43 % F & 60.47 % R. A.) whereas House Crow was chiefly feeding on plant matter (65.04 % F and 55.48 % R. A.). Both the species in residential area largely relied upon kitchen waste and flesh of road-killed vertebrates. Jungle Crow depredation on fruits (10.50 %) and predation on invertebrates (6.55 %) and vertebrates (2.73 %) was higher compared to House Crow in the study area. It indicates that Jungle Crow act as predator of insect pest of important food crops as well as act as pest on fruit crops to some extent. Study area was divided into two major habitats viz., agricultural habitat anden_US
