Good news for Alaska's wolves.
Advertisements [?]
Our state legislature has just voted down the appointment of taxidermist and helicopter gunman Allen Barrette to Alaska's Board of Game. This is really an excellent outcome and proof that pressure on the legislature works.

For background on Mr. Barrette, read Shannyn Moore's excellent summation "When Predators Demand Predator Control" http://shannynmoore.wordpress.com/2010/04/08/when-predators-demand-predator-control/

Good to see that someone in Juneau is waking up to the fact that 80% of the people in Alaska are NOT hunters and that we don't want the state to be a giant moose farm.
