Save the Comorants!
The mass killing of cormorants will not be beneficial. It will force other bird species to vacate the colony sites they share with cormorants.
There is no way to kill cormorants humanely. There will be large numbers of injured and crippled birds left to die or starve to death including their babies.
The mass killing of cormorants will damage the environment and disrupt natural ecosystems.
Only a small number of islands and peninsula sites are available for cormorants and other colonial waterbirds to nest on.
Cormorants eat invasive fish such as alewives and round gobies as well as other non-commercial, non-forage species.
We should not kill wildlife unless absolutely necessary and this is not the case for cormorants!
