Please do not legislate a hunting season for the Ontario cormorant. Please do not make this bird a game bird. It has been near extinction in the past and has only recently come back as a healthy native species. We need to protect this wonderful aquatic bird. We make so many mistakes as humans, here is a time when we have the power to not make a grave mistake. Our earth is is peril. Nature is in peril. We need, as an entire country to protect what we have left with all our power.
I spend a lot of time on the water kayaking, and have lived by the water my entire life. The cormorant has lived with me and keeps me company as I sail, swim, and kayak. I can not imagine life without it. Why don’t we promote outdoor activities, and eco tourism instead of killing? Please protect this wonderful bird.
Thank you
