I was shocked to read more than 500 crows were taken down just because some crows made loud noise and some attacked people. Not all crows hurt people. In fact, I noticed some are quite gentle. Time to stop indiscriminate culling on all crows. Think of other alternative ways. Now I understand what Vernerable Huineng who said. 有像就把菩提给遮蔽。 Looking at forms (appearance), it hide wisdom compassion. Some people lost their compassion just because others are of different forms/appearance. I finally understand what he meant.
Be compassionate and merciful. Stop cruel harming of sentient beings. In fact, crows are revered in Wudang mountains as it helped to save people's life by making loud noise and leading the person out of the mountain. 适可而止。Don't go overboard with harming sentient beings. Know when to stop.
