Do not allow a hunting…

Do not allow a hunting season for double-crested cormorants. Hunters are destroying our wildlife through their misguided beliefs that animals need to be culled by hunting. Hunters do not cull the weak, sick or injured. They kill the strong animals that need to stay alive to keep the gene pool strong. Many animals suffer needlessly due to careless or inexperienced hunters who do not know how to drop the animal with one kill shot. Hunting is cruel and unnecessary. With the easy accessibility of many different types of food products in most areas, hunters do not need to hunt for food. Hunting is an outdated tradition that has absolutely no benefit to anyone, and especially to the environment. Please do not allow yet another animal to be cruelly slaughtered by hunters who only care about displaying a dead animal on social media or on their mantle instead of beholding the beauty of a living creature moving about in its natural environment. Most people want to see animals living freely as nature intended, not cruelly hunted down by some selfish hunter. DO NOT ALLOW CORMORANTS TO BE HUNTED!
