Alaska has authorized another government-sanctioned killing season for a wolf population its own scientists describe as isolated, inbred and genetically vulnerable. On November 6, the Alaska Department of Fish and Game issued Emergency Order R1-12-26, opening a 31-day wolf-trapping season in Game Management Unit 2, which includes Prince of Wales Island and adjacent islands in Southeast Alaska.
State and federal trapping begins November 15 and runs through December 15. Wolf hunting, already underway since September 1, will close on the same date.
