Dr. John Morton, former Supervisory Biologist at the Kenai National Wildlife Refuge, explores the proposed management changes at the Kenai National Wildlife Refuge. Proposed regulatory changes for the refuge include killing brown bears over bait, more inhumane methods of furbearer trapping, and traps and snares near hiking trails and campgrounds. John will review current refuge management, detail the proposed regulatory changes, and describe the opportunity for you to weigh in to the decision process. The 2 million-acre Kenai National Wildlife Refuge is the most visited refuge in Alaska by both residents and tourists.
