I fully support the opening of a hunting season for cormorants.
Reducing their population will help other birds by increasing nesting sites now destroyed by cormorants.
This action is intended as pest control and therefore hunters should not be obligated to prevent meat spoilage
MNR should set bag limits and have the ability to mange populations
The risk of negatively impacting other nesting birds while eradicating cormorants should be considered in the legislation. I would suggest hunting during nesting season must be conducted a minimum of 300 meters away from ANY bird nests. I am confident that hunters seeing this requirement will understand the risk and self regulate accordingly
