  • Alaska's Predator Control Programs
    Alaska’sAlaska’s PredatorPredator ControlControl ProgramsPrograms Managing for Abundance or Abundant Mismanagement? In 1995, Alaska Governor Tony Knowles responded to negative publicity over his state’s predator control programs by requesting a National Academy of Sciences review of Alaska’s entire approach to predator control. Following the review Governor Knowles announced that no program should be considered unless it met three criteria: cost-effectiveness, scientific scrutiny and broad public acceptability. The National Academy of Sciences’ National Research Council (NRC) released its review, Wolves, Bears, and Their Prey in Alaska, in 1997, drawing conclusions and making recommendations for management of Alaska’s predators and prey. In 1996, prior to the release of the NRC report, the Wolf Management Reform Coalition, a group dedicated to promoting fair-chase hunting and responsible management of wolves in Alaska, published Showdown in Alaska to document the rise of wolf control in Alaska and the efforts undertaken to stop it. This report, Alaska’s Predator Control Programs: Managing for Abundance or Abundant Mismanagement? picks up where that 1996 report left off.

  • Technical Note Usda Natural Resources Conservation Service Alaska
    TECHNICAL NOTE USDA NATURAL RESOURCES CONSERVATION SERVICE ALASKA Alaska Biology Technical Note – No. 1 HABITAT ENHANCEMENT for MOOSE in BOREAL ALASKA Introduction Moose evolved in Eurasia and migrated to North America over the Bering Land Bridge during the Pleistocene. Moose have been an important part of Alaska Native subsistence culture for millennia. In addition to being one of the most familiar large mammals in the state, they are also one of the most sought-after wildlife species in Alaska. Harvest is over 7,000 animals per year which yields millions of pounds of meat for human consumption. Wildlife management seeks to manage wildlife populations at an optimum abundance and provide sustainable harvest, maintain a desired nutritional or health condition of wildlife species and their forage plants, and provide for non- consumptive uses, such as wildlife viewing. Abundance of moose is constrained by hunting, predation, other sources of natural mortality (e.g., winter severity) as Moose. Photo courtesy of US Fish & Wildlife Service. well as the quantity and quality of available habitat. In the boreal forest, productive moose habitat is largely maintained by stochastic wildland fire in uplands and more regular fluvial action constrained to riparian corridors. During most years in Alaska, over one million acres of forest is burned. Many of these fires create optimal moose habitat for 20 – 30 years until preferred forage species like aspen, birch, and poplar grow out of the reach of moose or are replaced by non-forage species, typically spruce. Intensive foraging by high density moose populations can accelerate successional change from preferred forage species to non-preferred species.

    Conservation Practice and Policy Conservation Strategies for Species Affected by Apparent Competition HEIKO U. WITTMER,∗ ROBERT SERROUYA,† L. MARK ELBROCH,‡ AND ANDREW J. MARSHALL§ ∗School of Biological Sciences, Victoria University of Wellington, P.O. Box 600, Wellington 6140, New Zealand email [email protected] †Department of Biological Sciences, University of Alberta, Edmonton, AB T6G 2E9, Canada ‡Department of Wildlife, Fish, and Conservation Biology, University of California, Davis, CA 95616, U.S.A. §Department of Anthropology, University of California, Davis, CA 95616, U.S.A. Abstract: Apparent competition is an indirect interaction between 2 or more prey species through a shared predator, and it is increasingly recognized as a mechanism of the decline and extinction of many species. Through case studies, we evaluated the effectiveness of 4 management strategies for species affected by apparent competition: predator control, reduction in the abundances of alternate prey, simultaneous control of predators and alternate prey, and no active management of predators or alternate prey. Solely reducing predator abundances rapidly increased abundances of alternate and rare prey, but observed increases are likely short-lived due to fast increases in predator abundance following the cessation of control efforts. Sub- stantial reductions of an abundant alternate prey resulted in increased predation on endangered huemul (Hippocamelus bisulcus) deer in Chilean Patagonia, which highlights potential risks associated with solely reducing alternate prey species. Simultaneous removal of predators and alternate prey increased survival of island foxes (Urocyon littoralis) in California (U.S.A.) above a threshold required for population recovery. In the absence of active management, populations of rare woodland caribou (Rangifer tarandus caribou) continued to decline in British Columbia, Canada.

Hence, understanding the potential of direct or indirect competition between wolves and humans is useful for managers. In Chapter 1, I used a novel approach utilizing spatially-linked interviews to quantify the distance subsistence users were traveling from communities and rivers to harvest moose in the Yukon Flats. My study was the first to quantify hunter access in the Arctic and may provide managers with a harvest estimation approach that may supplement the current harvest ticket system, for which reporting is considered consistently low. My final results and model may be used by game managers outside of the Yukon Flats where hunter success is linked to access to forecast the impact of creating new access on game populations or forecast the effect of access closure on game populations.

  • Assessing Moose Hunter Distribution to Explore Hunter Competition
    ASSESSING MOOSE HUNTER DISTRIBUTION TO EXPLORE HUNTER COMPETITION Tessa R. Hasbrouck1, Todd J. Brinkman2, Glenn Stout3, and Knut Kielland2 1Alaska Department of Fish and Game, 2030 Sea Level Drive, Ketchikan, AK 99901, USA; 2University of Alaska Fairbanks, 1731 South Chandalar Drive, Fairbanks, AK 99975, USA; 3Alaska Department of Fish and Game, 1300 College Road, Fairbanks, AK 99701, USA ABSTRACT: Traditional values, motivations, and expectations of seclusion by moose (Alces alces) hunters, more specifically their distributional overlap and encounters in the field, may exacerbate perceptions of competition among hunters. However, few studies have quantitatively addressed over- lap in hunting activity where hunters express concern about competition. To assess spatial and tempo- ral characteristics of competition, our objectives were to: 1) quantify temporal harvest patterns in regions with low (roadless rural) and high (roaded urban) accessibility, and 2) quantify overlap in harvest patterns of two hunter groups (local, non-local) in rural regions. We used moose harvest data (2000–2016) in Alaska to quantify and compare hunting patterns across time and space between the two hunter groups in different moose management areas. We created a relative hunter overlap index that accounted for the extent of overlap between local and non-local harvest. The timing of peak har- vest was different (P < 0.01) in urban and rural regions, occurring in the beginning and middle of the hunting season, respectively. In the rural region, hunter overlap scores revealed a concentration in 20% of the area on 16–20 September, with 50% of local harvest on 33% of the area and 54% of non-local harvest on 18% of the area.
