Carrion Crows (Corvus corone) are common throughout England, Wales, and most of Scotland. Carrion Crows are only found on the eastern edges of the island of Ireland, whereas Hooded Crows are present everywhere.

Hybrids can be found in the regions where the two species coexist, including parts of Scotland, Northern Ireland, and the Isle of Man. From the early 1970s to the early 2000s, carrion crows in the UK steadily increased and remained largely stable. In some places, the number of carrion crows is under control. On the UK Green List^[1], the species is listed.
