"We all participate, even vegetarians, even the purist vegans"

This is true, but we aren't pretending to still be living in the 1800s.  7 billion people on the planet.  Even 700,000 in Alaska is too many to have everyone who doesn't need to be doing it driving around or dropped by plane in every corner of the state to satisfy some desire to play-act as a frontiersman (or woman).  It's over.
