Let's be clear up front: There are no reasonable arguments supporting this state program. Scientists have repeatedly complained about the absence of scientific justification. The slaughter ignores the respect most people feel toward wildlife, while many hunters denounce this extreme practice as violating their sport's ethics of "fair chase." And Alaska citizens have twice voted to outlaw the use of aircraft to kill wolves and other wildlife.

Her husband being a native American have a history of hunting that wouldn't make sense to a lib elitist. They actually hunt to get subsistance up there, they aren't trying to be fair to the wildlife, they are trying to put food on the table Patter's . Her hubby is a blue collar guy in real life, you don't understand.
