Summary
Alaska’s Fish and Game department is defending its predator control program amid backlash from conservation groups, arguing that caribou populations naturally fluctuate and that science-backed management—including hunting and predator control—is essential for sustainability. With roots dating back to 1959 and endorsed by decades of wildlife science, the program aims to maintain healthy herds without endangering predators, which rebound naturally. Over 80% of Alaskans hunt, fish, or eat wild game, underscoring the public’s reliance on responsible wildlife management—a model praised nationwide for its science-driven, balanced approach.
