I am firmly against a hunting season on the double-crested cormorant.

The mass killing of a native species is not an ecologically sound response and I’m not convinced any detrimental impacts caused by the birds justify this course of action.

As a resident of Toronto who enjoys the waterfront, I also have safety concerns over armed hunters firing guns around the cormorant’s breeding grounds, in close proximity to human activity and critical habitat for migratory birds.

Respectfully, please reconsider this proposal.
