Shooting 50 animals and throwing their carcasses in the garbage is not a hunt, its a slaughter. There is no evidence that there is an environmental problem here, just that some people don't like cormorants or how they live. The 9 1/2 month long "open season" is ridiculous.

This is political pandering to special interest groups who are scapegoating the cormorants when other environmental issues are to blame regarding declining commercial and sport fishing populations.

PLEASE use a fact- and science-based decision making process when dealing with environmental issues.
