I fully agree with these changes. I have seen the destruction of habitat and fisheries as a result of the population explosion of these birds due to reduced pesticide use and lack of predators.

I agree with the ability to shoot these birds anytime of the year, but I would request that the bag limit of 10 per day be lifted to unlimited. I dont believe most or maybe actually none will make a specific trip to hunt Cormorants, so the daily bag limit, which is an essential part of conservation laws for other game animals and birds doesnt really apply in this case.

As far as I am concerned, the ability to control these birds to protect fisheries with no closed season, no bag limits, or at least generous ones, as well as the use of non-toxic shot is a good thing for the environment in general.
