Years ago we had a collapse on our dam because of washed out top soil. The contractor was a buddy of the local game warden and he was there hanging around also. My Dad came down and asked if we could kill cormorants. The game warden chewed my Dad out and let him know the consequences of doing so. My Dad left.

When the game warden left, he told his contractor buddy to make sure my Dad buried or burned the cormorants and left. Texas rules do wiggle a little.
