Alaska hunting areas 23 and 26a possibly closed for 2021 non residents

[Woodsdreamer]

I was notified by artic air that a special meeting is to be held to review the request of the Northwest Artic Subsistence Regional Advisory Council. They are requesting closure of federal public lands in Alaska units 23 and 26a for caribou and moose hunting 2021 season by non federal qualified users . This meeting will be a tele conference which you can participate in (877) 918 3011 passcode 8147177Or send them an email in opposition contact. [email protected]

Typo above. It should be [email protected]

Load 'em up boys and girls! This is outright theft of a public resource.

There is a thread several pages long in the Caribou Hunting subforum that addresses this topic, and also has some good templates for email text in opposition of the special order.

Here is that thread:

Federal Proposals to CLOSE Alaska's GMU 23 and 26A to caribou and moose hunters

I'm saying NO to this closure proposal because it is another blatant, arbitrary misuse of the federal system by Northwest Arctic Native communities to propose closing federal lands for hunting to all non-local people. This illegitimate proposal has no scientific merit, no biological necessity...

Hoping this doesn't go through, for a ton of my future possible hunts!
