Is the goal to lower the cormorant population and manage at smaller numbers, or to eradicate the species??? The proposed bag limit is 50 birds a day. The proposed hunting season is 292 days long. This means a SINGLE person would be able to kill 14,600 cormorants in a year. The daily bag limit is much too high. It should be lowered to 10 birds a day. Also, the season should be closed after the average egg hatch date until fledge date to avoid the starvation and slow death of chicks.
