If this hunt is approved, how will it affect my ability to kayak, canoe, swim, sail, or fish on waterways in my areas? How will the safety of my children be protected from people wielding shotguns? I am also concerned about the disposal of dead birds. They could create a health concern if left to rot in the water. This hunt seems like a bandage solution to a bigger problem, which concerns the reasons why the birds' population has increased in the first place. I strongly oppose the establishment of a hunting season for the Cormorant and would advocate addressing the issue with other environmental projects.
