Want to influence Alaska’s hunting regulations? The Alaska Board of Game has called for proposed changes to hunting and trapping rules for Southeast and Southcentral regions of Alaska.<\/p>\n
Deadlines for proposed changes to rules governing Southeast (Game Management Units 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5) and Southcentral (Units 6, 7, 8, 14C and 15) are due by May 1 for consideration during the Board’s 2018\/2019 meeting cycle.<\/p>\n
The board considers a wide variety of proposals for hunting and trapping rules: Hunting seasons and bag limits for subsistence and general hunts for all species; trapping seasons and bag limits; big game prey populations and objectives for intensive management and predation control; restricted areas, including controlled use areas, management areas, closed areas and closures in state game refuges.<\/p>\n
Two topics will be considered for all game management units. Those are an exemption for fees for brown bear tags and a reauthorization of antlerless moose hunts, which state law requires be reauthorized annually.<\/p>\n
