The double-crested cormorant has attained population levels in Ontario that threatens the sustainability of fisheries in both the Great Lakes and inland lakes of the province. This species eats its weight daily in fish which affects food chain continuity for large game fish. Lire davantage

We have been aware of a cormorant “issue” for some time. We have recently taken up full time residence on West Bay of Balsam Lake. Since May of this year we experience flocks of Cormorants in excess of 30 birds feasting in the fish abundant weed beds off of our shoreline. Lire davantage

I live near Port Colborne Ont. Over the past few years the cormorant population on the break walls has exploded. Its not uncommon to see several thousand birds. There is a real need to reduce the numbers, to protect the spawning fish in the near by Bay. Lire davantage

I think it is about time the government shows some concern. Animal activists will tell you nature tends to take care of herself. Possibly true if there were no other influences. I know many will be jumping for joy over this as the birds are moving to smaller lakes and fishing them out. Lire davantage

I think a cull is definitely needed . I live along the shore line on Lake Erie. I see these birds come up behind my house with fish in there beaks over and over through out the summer . If I see this going on behind my house what other fish are being eaten that we don’t see . Lire davantage

We currently own 4 lodges on lake Nipissing. It is extremely difficult to encourage fishermen back to our lodges each year. Bad press regarding First Nations netting, the slot size and talk about the declining pickerel population. Lire davantage

Humans have an abysmal track record of "managing" wildlife. We, as humans, are the ones that need to be managed. Let us draw the line right here and say enough is enough. There is no justifiable reason to kill these animals. Lire davantage

I believe the cormorant to be an invasive species and whose numbers need to be kept in check. Regulated hunting and monitoring should be helpful in controlling the population and spread. I have no objection to anything in the proposal although I was surprised with the bag limit of 100. Again. Lire davantage

I would definitely like to see a hunting season for these foul birds. They have ruined two small islands on our lake with their nesting habits. We have also noticed flocks of up to 50 birds feeding on the fish in our lake. Lire davantage

Yes! I am in full agreement with the proposed hunting of cormorants. They are destructive to all bodies of water in which they inhabit. As an avid fisherman, I have noticed a large decrease in the numbers of fish caught over the past few years. Lire davantage

This sounds more like a cull than hunting since the bird apparently is not edible and the proposed limit is very high. I am a little concerned as well that loons can be difficult to distinguish from cormorants to the untrained eye when swimming in poor light conditions. Lire davantage
