Killing 50 cormorants per person per day just for the sake of killing them is a terrible way of controlling the population, The people shooting them are not marksmen and will also inflict injuries on both these birds and other species, What is the plan to dispose of the thousands of rotten and decaying birds that will be left in the water to float to shore?
, What next, the gulls, the mute swans, how about pigeons?
Have we learned nothing from our past history of what happened to the passenger pigeon when they were slaughtered by the thousands back in the last century. Now they are extinct. Please leave nature alone, As to the fishermen who claim the cormorants are eating their share of the spoils, I would say anyone who eats any fish from the Great Lakes need to rethink that, Or better still just wait and they will have plenty of fish when the Asian Carp show up,
