The proposal has serious flaws that would be detrimental to the ecosystem and would undermine responsible conservation practices. The proposal is not supported by any scientific evidence.

Double crested cormorants are not a game bird - they are inedible. Hunting these birds would wreak havoc with nesting, raising the young fledglings, and all other bird life in wetlands.

This hunt serves no purpose but to exterminate the cormorants and disrupt their habitats. Why on earth would anyone want to kill off a whole species of bird and totally ruin an ecosystem???

I'm flabbergasted that such a proposal was given any serious consideration!
