ADFG must follow the will of the BOG and Commissioner, appointees of the governor. Often, members of the BOG and the Commissioner know little to nothing about predator-prey dynamics. Intensive management has not worked.That fact is made even more significant when you look at the crazy amount of money the state spends on intensive management! Whether Alaska is in a recession or flush with money, it is stupid to spend so much money to benefit a handful of spoiled hunters! I remember the testimony of a Fairbanks car dealership owner. He said, "I have a cabin in the Alaska Range and I remember the days when there were so many moose that I was always able to shoot a moose from my front porch. I want my grandchildren to have that same experience". Those days are gone. When the federal and state governments engaged in IM in the 1940s-60s, prey animals had pristine habitats to move into. Now, the habitat is damaged in many areas due to too high populations of moose and caribou. Manage wisely.
