Although I do believe in the benefits of this hunt, I strongly suggest we CONSIDER:

- Preventing ANY disruption of breeding and breeding grounds of other bird species such as herons.

(I highly doubt many hunters will gather 50 cormorants and dispose of them properly.)

- The benefits of cormorants and that their diet does include eating invasive species such as carp and crayfish
