Unfortunately, Double Crested Cormorants have become more productive than some people would like to see but that does not mean they should now become hunted. I am for letting nature take its own course of balance without more human interference. i fear that the hunting of these cormorants might also include other birds accidentally being shot and/or scared away from the same breeding area and that these other birds might not have chances to breed or survive with all the gunfire action going on during this proposed protracted hunting season.

Please do not let this legislation pass because once started there is no sure means of controlling this hunt and its consequences nor are there enough funds to ensure that the only birds being hunted are in fact double crested cormorants.
