Dear Ms. Cove,
Sadly, you don't know what you are talking about.  Although Rick Sinnott spent most of his time dealing with problem bears he is deeply familiar with the broader issues of predator-human interactions.  Vic VanBallenberghe is one of the most astute predator-prey biologists on the planet when it comes to moose, wolves and bears.  Before you criticize these gentlemen, you should have the courtesy to read their publications.  Vic's research is remarkably insightful.  His problems with ADF&G stem from his integrity and refusal to surrender to political correctness and comic-book biology.
