"The need for true co-management," doesn't imply that the Inuit are going to take over the current management systems but simply states they want a representative in the process. I can't see the logic in denying the Inuit participation in wildlife management besides blatant prejudice. One would think their knowledge would be welcomed! Commercial hunters get representation, commercial fishing gets representation, there are organizations all over the place representing the rights of Alaskans and special interests but heaven forbid we allow the indigenous a place at the table of policy, ethics and sustainability of natural resources. It's downright shameful.
