Point Pelee National Park is pushing to move forward with a cull of thousands of Double-crested Cormorants over the next few years.  Many of you participated in a public consultation process on this matter last fall.  The good news is that the results of that consultation show the vast majority of people are opposed to the culling of cormorants.
 
There is another consultation period related to the environmental assessment process and we must ensure they understand that the majority of the public remains opposed to the lethal culling of cormorants on Middle island.  While Parks Canada suggests that culling is necessary to protect the “ecological integrity” of the island, this cruel and ineffective management strategy will in fact interfere with natural processes.
 
Please send a quick note stating that you are opposed to the culling of cormorants on Middle Island.
