The Government of US president Donald Trump wants to rebear hunting rules for conservation of protected areas in Alaska. According to plans published last Tuesday in official Journal of Government, some controversial methods are to be re-approved. This would reverse tougher rules of hunting from time of President Barack Obama’s predecessor government.

One of controversial methods is baiting with bacon or candy and hunting with dogs. On or, hunters are to be allowed to cave in in future and thus to illuminate retreat areas of black bear mor animals and ir boys with headlamps. Already last year, Republican-dominated Congress had loosened some provisions when MEPs had re-legalized hunting of helicopters and planes.
The US government, according to its own data, is concerned with reducing stocks of predators in protected areas – and thus allowing sport protectors to re-enable hunting of or animals, such as moose and caribou. Their inventories were steadily minimised by growing population of bears. For same reasons hunting of wolves will be possible again all year round.
The National Park Authority must still agree to new provisions. In a first opinion, however, she already signalled her approval. It was said in declaration that it was a harmonization of hunting regulations in Alaska. Finally, such hunting rules would also apply outside nature reserves.

The director of National Parks Conservation Association, Jim Adams, criticized government’s plans in Washington Post as “shameful and unethical.” It is only about promotion of sport hunters – and about “limiting herd of predators as much as possible”.
