OPINION: Lamenting the state’s kill of Wood-Tikchik Park bears
“It seems an exceedingly sad and lamentable thing to me, that the state can wage war on bears and wolves within a state park that was established, first and foremost, to protect and conserve the area’s fish and wildlife populations — and that it can do so within designated wilderness, no less. I believe that State Parks Director Ricky Gease could prevent the helicopter assault by withholding the necessary permit, but based on past actions, I’m sure that won’t happen.”
Alaska Wildlife Alliance continues our work to hold the State accountable for shooting nearly 100 bears from helicopters last spring without any public or peer-reviewed scientific process. Learn more here.
