The cormorant numbers on lake that I live on has been increasing substantially for the past number of years. They have even displaced the seagulls from islands as well as killed the vegetation on several islands. I watch them devour fish in front of my house greedily. They are an invasive species and I have no idea why it has taken this long to realize their negative impact on the environment. Culling is clearly the only way to go about this serious issue, hopefully being implemented by summer 2019. I do think it's a little ridiculous to even put a bag limit (50) on them as people will obviously disregard this (as they should).
