In order to control the urban crow population, the public has been discouraged from giving them food and has also been advised to dispose of food properly.
SINGAPORE — Following a series of attacks on people in Bishan starting last week, crows’ nests will be removed and the birds will be trapped and euthanized in order to reduce the crow population at Block 110 Bishan Street 12.
Photos of crows swooping down on people have been circulating online of late, with some crows grabbing people’s hair or landing on people’s heads as they were walking down a path. “House crows are not native and are an invasive species in Singapore, posing a threat to our native biodiversity… Additionally, they are particularly protective of their young and may attack when the chicks are in the nest or when they sense that their young are threatened,” he added.Just three years ago, after people were attacked by crows at Block 642 Desker Road, the birds were culled by shooting.
