Federal proposal: Kill salmon-eating seabirds

DateSaturday, June 21, 2014 at 12:00AM

First it was the sea lions, then the Caspian terns and now the double crested comorants.

Federal officials are proposing to kill half the large colony of cormorants in the Columbia River estuary because the large black seabirds eat too many young salmon and steelhead.

They should kill all the fish-eating spiders too!
