Hunting for the purpose of feeding people makes some sense.
The proposed cormorant hunt is wasteful and short sighted.
No one will eat cormorants. Just because you see many in one place does not mean they are abundant everywhere(they are colonial birds).
Consideration must also be given to the collateral damage to other birds that would be killed by accident..a result of proximity to a cormorant colony.
Who will oversee the hunt expectations if there was to be one...certainly not the MNRF ...they have neither the budget nor the people to take on the tasks.
Should additional funding be available certainly there are better places for such money to be spent; during this time described by the current government as one of "fiscal accountability and restraint".
