On the lookout

The Great Cormorant can be found widespread in Europe, Asia, Oceania and eastern North America.
This bird breeds mainly on coasts but also increasingly inland.

Many fishermen see in the Great Cormorant a competitor for fish. That’s why it was nearly hunted to extinction in the past !
Thanks to conservation efforts its numbers increased again, but this brings the Cormorant nowadays into conflict with fisheries once more……..
