FFS people! What is the matter with you???!!!

Two thoughts on this...
1) The hunter(s) that did this are idiots...
2) This is a well staged setup.
The pile and placement of the shell boxes look like a photo done by a professional studio.
Some people are idiots
I suspect its a little of both leaning more towards the latter. Someone crass enough to dump cormorants basically in public view isn't going to collect the empty boxes where they were shot to dump them alongside. Further seems a little coincidental that the professional photographer who made comments against hunting happens to be the one who makes the find.Quote:

For sure.... the idiot left shotgun boxes to make sure it pointed to hunters....Quote:

The guy appears to be pretty educated on the new Cormorant regulations. He's likely got the bag in his garbage.
Most guys I know pick up their hulls they be in the boxes. Either setup or pigs
Need couple cigarette packs and empty beer cans
IMO someone (hunter or anti) absolutely staged this on purpose to send a message and the accompanying shell boxes blatantly attest to that. I've seen enough fanatics and/or immaturity on both extremes.
Absolutely zero doubt this was staged by some antis. Hopefully the MNR is clued in enough to realize this.

If you open the picture and zoom in you will note:
1) 3 boxes of the same Winchester 3" Super X 12 guage.
2) on the left there appears to be a coot or ? .... maybe just the angle
3) at the bottom the bird appears to be a gull
No shells, neat pile obviously not tossed there (hence dumped.. but), boxes look almost pristine and no shells.... what are the odds the boxes wouldn't get squashed if they had been tossed or in a bag... a bag dumped where the shells ended up on the top would put the boxes at the bottom, hence... why aren't they squashed???
Any idiot can toss a bag in their garbage can or dumpster at Timmies etc. .... I would bet that someone dug through someones garbage or saw them dumped in a dumpster and fished them out along with the boxes took them to a public place and staged them.
...P.S.
Something else seems off to me, there is a tag or leaf on the very top...do the birds seem in good shape for being shot? They SEEM (??) all young birds too.... picture isn't good enough but they look very skinny COULD they be dead birds picked up from a colony? I just can't figure out what else is off about the picture.
4) near the bottom there is some grass on top of all them and a weed on the gulls? head and what looks like a reed through the middle ...did someone drop pick up and reorganize them?
Ok so if this is a hunter. And Mnr do catch up to them Regs say to buryOk I can deal with that It’s new season Mnr might give a warning but boxes are littering
I don’t think that’s a gull
Boxes are in great shape birds are too tho
Someone someplace has likely taken pictures of this hunt and posted shared some way They’ll find them
Some are just pigs you see deer hides heads gut piles along roads
MNRF should check the shooting ranges. After blasting through 2 boxes for 7 birds he's probably working on his wing shot.

There is a third box of shells under the right hand side.
Could be some idiots true, them being picked from a colony is very unlikely but it crossed my mind. The weeds on top make me think it was piled up by someone to stage it and the fact the boxes weren't crushed.... I really think someone went dumpster diving and staged it.
man scroll down to the comments under that article, vegan feast or what?
How many birds your estimate I say 12 plusQuote:

I’m going to say 5-6 guns found a honey hole and let loose. And I don’t think it was in water either
Sad damn 12 shovels of dirt they could have hide them tossing shell box’s on them looks fishy or truely stupid
Ok..now I have shot Cormorants when I was in New Brunswick, which was many moons ago. NOW maybe it's just me but the feathers look like the birds where washed and blow dried..
The thing is putting the requirements in the regulations aside, they are not hard to get rid of..they don't float.
If that one bird is a gull I wouldn’t want to get caught driving around with a shot oneQuote:

I mean that Cormorants unlike ducks and geese have feathers that soak up water, and quickly start to sink..Quote:

I saw something on top of the birds and was curious so I zoomed in to 300% on the browser, it was just some grass and twigs on top then I spotted what looks to be a gull head and eye. Odd that if they were dumped so neatly why is there some grass and twigs... I think someone repiled them to make the pile look bigger and stage the boxes?
Agreed. It's quite the coincidence if you ask me.Quote:

Still don’t see it. If you are talking about what appears to be a beak and eye in the bottom left corner, that’s a tail.Quote:

Yee hah.
Let's kill black fish eaters ++++because we can't figure out how to catch fish from our boats.
Curiously, the Ugly Black birds have no problem catching fish.
If they could not... they would have moved to other lakes.
If you can not catch fish, it is not because of cormorants, it is because you do not now how to fish.
somebody is bored and looking to start an arguement.Quote:
