Say it aint so, Sam.  You've misread the Alaska Constitution.  Art VIII, Section 4 requires "...resources belonging to the State shall be utilized, developed, and maintained on the sustained yield principle, subject to preferences among beneficial uses."

See the comma after "...sustained yield principle,"?  the final six words of the sentence require BOG to consider other beneficial uses. (Wildlife viewing, tourism, photography, etc.)  BOG has failed, utterly, to do anything other than try and boost ungulate populations to turn Alaska into a game farm and ignored, unconstitutionally, Section 4.
