Lake Manitoba study funds eyed by fishermen union
The provincial government provides nearly 20 000 to the Lake Manitoba Fishermen's Association to study whether large cormorant populations are reducing commercial fish stocks. Avian researchers contest the birds' blamed impact, citing prey like mullet and minnows and suggesting fishermen may contribute via illegal nets. The funding is part of a 144 000 program across 11 groups from the Special Conservation and Endangered Species Fund.
