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 . They are roosting at night in trees on the edge of Rondeau Park and you can see where the trees are loosing there foliage from there droppings and will eventually kill these trees . The perch fishing has been very bad for at least five years now . I personally think the lack of perch and other species in Lake Erieau have gotten worse since the cormorant numbers have sky rocketed . I as an outdoors man I do not like the though of shooting cormorants however if something isn’t don’t soon it may be to late for our fisheries and forests along the shores of our lakes and rivers .
