The DFG would like to reduce the population but the Feds are in the way. Almost all but the most head-in-the-sand enviro realize that cormorants are becoming a huge problem. It is true that the Feds are considering letting states do some control "WITH FEDERAL OVERSIGHT". This means that if a state would like to shoo away a cormorant, much less KILL it, they will need to get federal approval. Considering the Federal government's track record on acting quickly and reasonably, I'm not encouraged.

If they do manage to open them to hunting, I'm buying a shotgun. That would be so cool }(
