Plural of cormorant; multiple large diving seabirds that hunt fish in marine and freshwater environments.
Simply the plural form of cormorant, adding the standard English -s suffix. Preserves the Latin etymology 'corvus marinus' (sea raven).
Cormorants have been so successful at fishing that some countries declared them pests and actually paid people to cull them—ironically, we created the problem by damming rivers and concentrating fish, which attracted massive cormorant populations.
