With regards to ERO number 013-4124, my family and I object.

The hunting season is too long (292 days) and includes the nesting season of cormorants that often form nesting colonies alongside herons and gulls.

The bag limit is too high and since the birds are considered inedible, the hunted birds would be allowed to spoil - which goes against the ethics of hunting game, does it not?

What is to become of peaceful recreational activities around wetlands and waterways when anyone with a hunting license is exterminating all the Double-crested Cormorants they can find? Up to 50 per day!

Where are the studies that show this need for a hunt?
