This proposal is an exceptionally regressive step in regards to how we appreciate the natural world around us. To say the least, I find this proposal absurd. We should be celebrating the abundance of the Double-crested Cormorant as it shows how much our waters have improved. A good news story.

I firmly believe that cormorants are not a problem. Despite what fishermen say, commercial and sport, there is absolutely no evidence that cormorants are reducing yields of fish. This hunt is nothing more than a slaughter which in no way can be condoned. It is barbaric and the proposal should be rejected out of hand.
