re: Proposed Double-Crested Cormorant Eradication Program.

This is not a management program as much as it is an extermination program.
This is not based on any reliable science.
The Double-Breasted Cormorant is a recovered species that this program will turn into an endangered one.
Allowing hunters to shoot 50 a day and leave them to rot is basically barbarism at its best.
60% of vertebrates have disappeared on earth since the 70s.
This program will push these valuable birds towards extinction in Ontario.
Enough of this madness. Ditch the program and leave the birds alone to play their role in maintaining a healthy ecosystem.
