I personally believe that opening up a season on the double- crested cormorant in Ontario would be a excellent idea! For starters, it would generate a new source income for the ministry of natural resources by having more people buy licences to hunt them as well as the enforcement of the polices and procedures. Secondly, opening up a season would help ease rising tensions between the local fisheries the community and the ministry of natural resources (MNR). Lastly, as an avid outdoors man I have noticed a significant increase in the double- crested cormorant in Ontario over the past few years. They not only have killed all of the vegetation on sister island but they have also have a ferocious appetite for fish. The MNR already has to cull hundreds if not thousands of these birds annually why not open it up to outdoors man as well?
