In Louisiana, you gotta have a license and hip certification. The mourning and white-wing are game animals, thus 15 daily aggregate limit. If you breast out the birds in the field, eurasian and ringnecks are counted in the aggregate limit. If you dont dress out the birds, there is no limit on the eurasians or ringnecks.

Invasive species in most states. Good eating. But, we are better off without them. I can't imagine NV making them a game animal... Anything for a buck, I reckon.  Why not? Striped bass are an invasive species in most areas, but considered a gamefish at the same time. I don't think them having an "invasive species" moniker is gonna do a damn thing to keep them in check.

I read that a storm off the west coast of africa had blown the birds down to the islands SE of florida -then the birds made their way island hopping to the mainland here in Florida.
They are aggressive towards the smaller mourning doves when the mourning doves are nesting.
They're good eating -them & some yard squirrel is a good change of pace when Wendy's doesn't sound appealing .

I would gladly trade our starlings for collared doves.
If you're going to have an invasive species, it may as well provide some tasty comestibles.

Well said, they are very good to eat. Kinda like flying tilapia another invasive species of fresh water.

I plan to take some here in the Grand Junction, CO area (where legal of course) with my air gun. Based on my backyard, they are flat out a pest. They drive off the Mourning Doves from the bird feeder along with about everything else. Can't say that I'm terribly fond of their call either. Almost make me not mind the cats running loose. Wait, they seem to only kill songbirds.
We have A LOT of homeless people around, and I have seen a few with pellet guns. Many bunk down in the brush by the river. My hope is they are eating Eurasian Collared Doves around the fire on the banks of the Colorado. Sort of a symmetry there.
