The government's proposal to allow a hunt of cormorants is terrible.

The proposal does not include any scientific evidence that cormorants have been "detrimental to fish populations, island forest habitats, or other species". That the government would even consider allowing such a hunt because of "aesthetic" concerns is appalling, as is the proposal to allow carcasses to spoil. Allowing the hunt yearly for the entire duration of their stay in this region looks like the intention is to the wipe the population out entirely.

Instead of moving forward with such a drastic proposal, please conduct scientific research into the claims of the concerned groups.
