Cormorants are responsible for the damage on numerous islands on the Bay of Quinte. I have personally visited Snake Island, west of Ox Point, and seen the damage caused by their excessive numbers. The fecal matter has killed all plant life on the island and has amassed to a number of feet in depth. The birds continue to group on this location without any predators to control the population.
