I strongly disagree with the Ontario Government's proposal to establish a hunting season for double-crested cormorants in Ontario. The practice of individuals and businesses getting their government to essentially 'declare war' on defenseless native species of birds and animals has to stop! We as humans have caused too many extinctions already. And how does this even meet Federal Migratory Bird regulations? Double-crested cormorants breed here but probably spend more time in the US, Mexico and beyond. Why would we as Ontarians think we 'own' these birds and can dispose of them on the basis of a few individual's ill-founded misconceptions?
