How ever in Europe they can be hunted. as can the europeon Jay.
Magpies are in the Family Corvidae, the same as crows and ravens. They are Federally protected.
I know they can be taken with falcons and if I'm not mistaken they can be shot as well. They are not listed as migratory birds in colorados small game brochure but the common crow is. I guess cause they don't migrate. As least they never did when I lived out there. Hope this helps. Ron
