Kodiak Hunters Will Be Allowed
3 Deer, 2 Elk During Fall Season
Kodiak hunters will be able 10
take three deer this fall, according
tq new game regulations. Also Ko
diak hunters will be allowed to take
an extra elk on the Tonki Cape
area of Afognak Island.
.The Alaska Board of Fish and
Game, at its recently-concluded
spring meeting in Juneau, adopted
a, .number of amendments to the
State Game and Guiding Regula
tions. The new regulations become
effective July 1. A new regulatory
pamphlet incorporating the
changes will be available to sports
men about mid-June, according to
the Department of Fish and Game.
Among the regulations adopted
by the Board were several changes
from last year’s big game seasons
and bag limits. In 1963-64, hunters
will be able to take:
I)eer from Aug. 1 to Dec. 31, ex
cept in Prince William Sound
where the season will be Aug. 15 to
Djec. 31. The bag limit was upped
tci three deer on Kodiak Island,
with no changes elsewhere,
j Moose after Aug. 1 in the Arctic
(compared to Aug. 20 last year):
elsewhere there are only minor
changes in the opening dates on
bills. The Berner’s Bay area north
of Juneau will be opened for the
fifst time this year, from Sept. 15
to Sept. 30, with a limit of one bull
Pf r hunter. A number of antlerless
moose seasons have again been
scheduled, with some new areas
in the Interior being given their
first—though brief—antlerless sea
central Alaska, the antlerless
moose seasons have been shortened
from last year. The Kenai Penin
sula, Matanuska Valley and Nel
china areas will have a common
antlerless season from Sept. 24 to
Sept. 30.
Caribou from Aug. 10 to March
31 except in those areas where
there is an unchanged, continuous
ly open season. Continued build
ups in caribou numbers caused the
Board to lengthen seasons from the
Aug. 20-Dec. 31 dates in effect last
year.
Elk from Aug. 1 to Dec. 31, with
a limit of one elk except on the
Tonki Cape area of Afognak Is
land, where the limit will be two.
Sheep starting July 20 in the
Arctic, with no changes in the rest
of the State. Hunters will be able
to take two % curl rams in the for
mer area, with the season running
until Sept. 20.
Goat from Aug. 1 to Dec. 31 in
Southeastern and in Prince Wil
liam Sound (Game Management
Units 1 through 6) and Aug. 10 to
Nov. 30 elsewhere: these seasons
are unchanged from 1962.
Bison during a permit-only ea
son to be announced later. Permits
will be selected in a drawing as in
1961, with rules for aplying also
to be announced later. Up to 20
aged, nonproductive animals will
be removed through this hunt in
an effort to improve the herd.
Brown and Grizzly Bear begin
ning Sept. 1 in most of the State,
except for an Aug. 20 opening in
the Arctic. The Alaska Peninsula
and the Arctic (Game Management
Unit 9) thus open 10 days earlier
than last year, with no changes in
opening dates elsewhere.
Polar Bear from Oct. 15 to May
10: the 1964 closing date is 10 days
later than 1963’s regular-season
closure.
Among other amendments to the
regulations adopted by the Board
is a restriction on the use of air
craft for big game hunting on the
Alaska Peninsula. Except for the
period Dec. 1 to March 31, aircraft
may now be used in that area
(Game Management Unit 9) only
to establish a camp or as transpor
tation to a camp previously estab
lished. The Board also adopted a
requirement that moose hunters
must obtain Harvest Tickets before
hunting that species. The tickets
will be similar to those required
for sheep last year, and will be is
sued without charge. The Sheep
Harvest Tickets wlil be required
again in 1963.
