I believe something should be done, but the bag limit of 50 birds per day is very high and should be reconsidered. I'm not familiar with the process, but who came up with that number? Was there a study or any research done on how that will impact the species as a whole and species that are linked to the cormorant? If not, I believe there should be.

In the construction industry, environmental assessments are conducted before development happens. This is to ensure either natural things aren't harmed or proper practices can be followed to mitigate the harm caused by our actions. Why should the same action not be applied to the issue of the cormorants?
