Steve asked about which animals are said to have been hunted in Mayberry. I'm not sure if shooting crows qualifies as hunting or not, but anyway here are some animals Andy is said to hunt:
Frog hunting/gigging in The New Housekeeper and The Inspector Ducks in Opie and the Carnival Quail in The Clubmen "Northern Honkers" (geese, I assume) in High Noon in Mayberry Tigers (jokingly) in Opie the Birdman There's a mounted deer head in Andy's living room in some early episodes, so maybe he hunts deer as well. Also, Goober goes on a hunting trip in Goober Makes History, but I don't recall if any specific prey was mentioned, and Dud Wash "keeps his nose to the possum hole" during possum season. Ernest T. Bass mentions a .22 repeater in one episode and possum steaks in another episode, so he probably hunts or traps as well. If hunting people counts, Andy and Barney sometimes go out on a man hunt (or woman hunt) and Opie and hs friends consider "hunting Indians" in Runaway Kid.
