Please absolutely no. You have been mislead with false myth and information regarding this bird. Their return to the native great lakes is a sign of health bio-diversity that have been proven study after study. These birds have been wrongly prosecuted and we drove them to extinction once. Please stop this mass murder. This will cause wide spread damage to many bird colonies, the environment etc. contrary to all the myths. Please educate your self.

Conservation biologist Linda Wires provides a unique synthesis of the cultural, historical, scientific, and political elements of the cormorant’s story. She discusses the amazing late-twentieth-century population recovery, aided by protection policies and environment conservation, but also the subsequent U.S. federal policies under which hundreds of thousands of the birds have been killed. In a critique of the science, management, and ethics underlying the double-crested cormorant’s treatment today, Wires exposes “management” as a euphemism for persecution and shows that the current strategies of aggressive predator control are outdated and unsupported by science.
