While a hunting for comerants is, on the surface a method for pressuring populations, the scale needed would be so large that the number killed by hunters will almost certainly fall within the compensatory mortality of this species. Lire davantage

As an amateur birder in the Hamilton area, I think it will be very dangerous to have hunters shooting at cormorants that nest with other currently protected birds like Great Blue Herons and Great Egrets. Lire davantage

Please abandon this ecologically reckless, inhumane and short-sighted proposal. Once gone these birds will NEVER return. The problem with fish stocks is due to over-fishing, not birds.

I am shocked that the Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry is proposing a virtually unlimited lethal intervention to control the population of the double crested cormorant. Lire davantage

This is so wrong. The cormorants are native birds and important to the ecology of the area. Their stocks were severely depleted two times in the past and should not be hunted now. Lower fish numbers can be due to over fishing and pollution in the waters, both man made conditions. Lire davantage

I am concerned about the shooting of up to 50 cormorants per day during the spring and summer months. Hunters are allowed to shoot them from boats on lakes and rivers and the risk to the general public who are walking, bathing, boating etc in the areas where cormorants are is just too great.

As a wildlife biologist, I disagree that any native species should be targeted to reduce its population sizes. Double-crested cormorants occur naturally in Ontario, and their numbers do not need to be controlled across the province as they play an integral role in their own ecosystems. Lire davantage

As an avid birder and someone who just enjoys being outdoors... I am truly sickened by this proposal. Please rethink this idea as it has high potential to put the species at risk. I was born in Ontario...when I go back to visit, the double-crested cormorants are a favorite to see. Lire davantage

This is not ethical and is a huge waste. Shooting nesting birds at any time is unacceptable but to leave them to do nothing but rot is wasteful. Don't condemn babies to slowly starve to death all for human interest. Lire davantage

Hunting these birds makes no sense at all... there is little or no sport in it, and the possible argument that they are "game" birds holds no water. Lire davantage

Living in Southwestern Ontario basically at the corner of the Detroit River and Lake Erie, I have seen what these birds are capable of. I have seen the birds feasting on schools of fish and destroying vegetation of all types. The cull on these birds is a great idea. Lire davantage

I am against the hunt. 1. As noted in the proposal details, "Great Lakes populations have since stabilized or declined slightly" since the 2000's. If so, why the culling now? The population has stabilized. Lire davantage

What an absurd proposal. Even if the science did support such a hunt, and it doesn't appear to, the way this hunt (lets call it for what it is rather than usevcute euphemisms such as 'cull') is structured will assure just another environmentally destructive process. Lire davantage

I agree with the new changes allowing hunting of cormorants. I have seen first hand the damage they do and need to be controlled.

How exactly, will these comments affect the decision process? Will there be a sunset clause based on regular population counts? How will the DB Cormorant population respond to a sudden increase in mortality? Lire davantage
