Huntin&Fishin Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 Who else hates these things, and thinks they should come off the protected list. They do not do anything good. They kill trees, they eat alot of fish and if it is a flock can hurt fishing drastically, and the are just ugly too, but mostly they just affect the environment negatively. The population has gone up 7% every year the past few years and nothing much is being done to stop them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fish&Fowl Posted September 19, 2008 Share Posted September 19, 2008 Open up a season on them so we can sit out on big rock piles in the middle of a lake and shoot 'em like sea ducks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huntin&Fishin Posted September 19, 2008 Author Share Posted September 19, 2008 I was watching Bill Dance Fishing and he said in the next years or so they are going to open a season but i emailed the us wildlife services and they said they aren't.

D.Boedigheimer Posted September 20, 2008 Share Posted September 20, 2008 I used to think that all creatures are neat in there own way, and if your not going to eat them , then don't shoot them. But I cannot think of a single redeeming quality about these stinky, ugly, greasy, fish eaters. They have been a nuisance everywhere they live. If the government can kill thousands a year, then the public should be able to as well.....I say CUT'EM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huntin&Fishin Posted September 20, 2008 Author Share Posted September 20, 2008 I agree with you there is NOT ONE positive thing about these thing, the kill trees with there acid [PoorWordUsage], they clean out the lakes of fish, they are just terrible!!

dan z Posted September 20, 2008 Share Posted September 20, 2008 openen em up it would be got target practice have a season limit not a daily bag you could contact farmers that have a rodent problem and then they could stash these useless birds away from the farm site to draw them away. on a side note our fishing population would rise too.

machohorn Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 No wonder the GOV't is protecting them, they are both the same > They stink, their Terrible and they eat up every tax dollar in sight killing the lakes/economy.
