Cormorants are still…

Cormorants are still expanding range and with population explosion continuing with over populated nesting colonies on inland lands. Example: Sturgeon Lake within Kawartha Lakes (Walleye fishery virtually on verge of collapse - many factors involved - Cormorants being one of them.

They are a species that negatively changes ecosytems through their species behavior. Demonstrate some resource management leadership and protect our inland lake water quality, island habitat and fisheries which are more at risk. There appears to be virtually no significant natural controls or predation. The fishery is worth more to the province than the existence of cormorants. The local ecosytem and habitat was fine without them for decades. There are many other fish eating bird species that are not prolithic to the point of negative impacts.

Cull all of them inland of the great lakes.
