I am shocked at the number of double crested cormorants that the ministry wants to be hunted per day per person. 50 that is. It seems to me that the ministry needs to slow down this process first of all, to study more deeply the role of cormorant affecting the fish population, are they the ones to blame or are they simply a target. They need to study certain areas that may need some cull. They also need to study the impact of wiping out such large numbers of a species, how would that affect the impact of ecosystems. Aren't we interfering enough as it is with wildlife, i suggest being more responsible and pursuing more studies before taking such draconian measures. Thank you for reading my comment.
