If the double created cormorants are becoming that much of nuisance then yes , allowing them to be hunted seems reasonable to control the species .
However , like all other species that we are able to hunt , there should be more strict restrictions.
Not only will it disrupt other birds nesting or breeding , by allowing this we could accidentally wipe out much of the species.
Are cormorants a sought after meal
For humans ? Will there be piles of dead cormorants on our riverbanks and parks?
Many people who love the outdoors and exploring our beautiful country’s water ways will now need to worry about hunters on the edge of rivers and parks shooting at theses birds ?
Nuisance or not there needs to be some
Rules in place.
Seagulls aren’t the loveliest bird to behold either but we don’t go shooting into the sky every time someone feeds the seagulls their lunch left overs at the beach
