Bears May Be Next Victims of Aerial Killing in Alaska

Apparently, the current aerial gunning of wolves in Alaska is not enough for some trophy hunters and their supporters in the state government. The Alaska Board of Game, which previously approved the aerial killing of wolves, leading to at least 91 wolf deaths already, is meeting to hear a number of proposals, including some that call for aerial gunning and bait-and-shooting of grizzly and black bears, as well as the selling of bear parts and the killing of bear cubs that are still with their mothers. The board may also extend aerial gunning of wolves to other areas.
