Migratory Bird
Seasons Set
Open seasons for ducks, geese,
cranes, and jacksnipe have been es
tablished for 1963, the Alaska De
partment of Fish and Game an
nounced today. Opening day is
September 1 for all species, except
on the Aleutian and Pribilof Is
lands (Game Management Unit 10)
where the season opens October 15
on waterfowl.
James W. Brooks, Director of
the Department’s Division of Game,
said that the later opening in Game
Management Unit 10, which allows
the season there to run through
January 15 in contrast to the Dec
ember 14 closure for the rest of
Alaska, comes as a result of thrpe
years of effort by the Department
to obtain such a split season with
out having to settle for a shorter
season for the State as a whole.
Migratory bird seasons are selec
ted by the State from within a
framework established by the U.S.
Department of the Interior. Prior
to this year, the State was given
a choice of either a 74 day split sea
son or a 105 day season which
would be the same throughout
Alaska. In order to obtain a late
season for the Aleutians, therefore,
it would have been necessary to cut
11 days from the season elsewhere.
Waterfowl, particularly the sea
ducks which comprise the bulk of
Aleutian harvest, do not become
available in that area until Decem
ber and January.
Jacksnipe and Sandhill crane
seasons open September 1 through
out the State, with the crane sea
son closing September 30 and the
jacksnipe season closing October
15.
Daily bag and possession limits
remain unchanged from last year.
Regulations detailing these limits,
together with sunset and sunrise
tables for various towns in Alaska,
should be available from Depart
ment of Fish and Game offices and
license officers. Shooting hours
will be from one-half hour before
sunrise to sunset, as in the past.
