The Crow Tribe
The Crows' main source of food was bison, but they also hunted mountain sheep, deer, and
other game. The rump, tongue, liver, heart, and kidneys all were considered delicacies.
The Crow had more horses than any other Plains tribe; in 1914 they numbered approximately
thirty to forty thousand head. They also had many dogs; one source counted five to six
hundred. Unlike some other tribes, they did not consume dog.
The Crow were organized by matrilineal descent. After marriage, the couple was matrilocal
(the husband moved to the wife's mother's house upon marriage). Women held a significant
role within the tribe.
