I think that the government is totally wrong in suggesting a 50 day kill of cormorants just because they are deemed a nuisance. The cormorants are currently making a comeback from a very steep past decline and will therefore over populate until they realize that doing so means less food etc for themselves and then they will naturally stabilize their numbers. Having hunters shoot a species to almost extinction (in this area again) will only cause those left to propagate. Leave them alone. They attract other species who feed on them or nest beside them. Their numbers will stabilize as time goes on. I feel the government is supporting this idea of a hunt without proper insight into the eventual outcome of such a proposal.
