We 100% agree that there should be hunting season on cormorants.

They destroy the environment.
Decimate sport fish population.

Pollute lakes, kill trees, create disgusting smell, chase away other species, cause bacteria and disease, negatively affect property values with the unsightly dead trees.

There is no natural predator to these birds so no way of controlling them.

1 cormorant alone eats over a pound of fish a day. In one season of only 7 months, EACH bird produces over 200 POUNDS of Bacteria, Disease infested FECES that is dumped into our lakes and land!!!
Multiply this by the thousands of birds in Orillia area alone! For every 1000 of these birds (and there are many thousands of them), they produce over 100 TONS of FECES EXCRIMENT.

Note that us humans drink from the water they are polluting. An environmental and health catastrophe.

YES, establish a hunting season on these cormorants
