Consider identifying specific days and hours of hunting specifically in areas where there is significant cottage and summer boating activity,perhaps avoiding weekends during the July/August period.
For disposal could you enlist municipal dump sites to accommodate the dead birds?
Cormorants nest in trees during the day on Islands.it would be difficult to collect the dead birds.Not sure how to deal with this.
For safety on the water suggest that hunters go in pairs with one hunter controlling the boat?
Cormorants breed and nest in the spring.Post identified breeding sites so they could be culled while on the nest and allow destruction of the nests.
If the MNR has the manpower create "Culling days during the breeding periods where volunteers go out with an MNR rep to cull the birds at the nesting site.
