I can tell you from working as a state trooper for 23 years very few would know the date when a law was enacted unless they were around at the time. Even then if they could remember. Unless alone the person one get on the phone calling the general number. | |||

Don't ask, don't tell. Always the best policy when you're forced to kill something big, but don't want to be hassled afterward as to the details of how and why you killed it. You just want to get home to a roaring fireplace and a cold beer, ... or three. "Only accurate rifles are interesting." | |||

This is bad advice, esp in Alaska and especially if you are hunting with a guide. You want to risk his livelihood by breaking a law because you don't want the "hassle" of skinning the bear and recovering the hide and skull? | |||

Guides are required by law to report any and all violations they witness and failing to do so will cause them to loose their license. And if they are implicated in the crime their penalties will be more than the hunter.

I'm not under the impression you can get away with to much up here. I'm sure the occasional cow is poached or the occasional bear is " SSS'd" but these critters are hard to hide and in a state as small as this, people talk, and then talk to the wrong folks about their shenanigans. I think the Law is pretty forgiving for folks that just make mistakes and admit it. When the Law catches you doing it and catches you hiding it,..... It's ugly. | |||

My thoughts exactly!! There has been a couple of instances in 37yrs of guideing that needed to be reported,,if everyone is 100% honest and stories match you are good to go! On the homestead here we have dealt with problem bears nonstop,,there is a line in the sand,so to speak! I tend to use more than enough gun | |||

During the 33 years we have been living here in the refuge , any time we have had serious issues with bears the advice and help we received from state F&G and state F&W protection officers have been a lot more helpful and spot on than the "help" and lightly veiled threats from USFWS.

I agree. I know of a guy who did jail time for killing a moose out of season and wasting the meat. He paid dearly. Another guy accidentally killed a moose that was just under 50 inches in a 50 or better zone. He contracted the troopers and admitted the mistake. He was instructed to salvage the meat and horns and surrender them to Ak F&G. They gave him a $500 fine and he lost the meat and his tag filled but that was it. Jason "You're not hard-core, unless you live hard-core." _______________________ Hunting in Africa is an adventure. The number of variables involved preclude the possibility of a perfect hunt. Some problems will arise. How you decide to handle them will determine how much you enjoy your hunt. Just tell yourself, "it's all part of the adventure." Remember, if Robert Ruark had gotten upset every time problems with Harry Selby's flat bed truck delayed the safari, Horn of the Hunter would have read like an indictment of Selby. But Ruark rolled with the punches, poured some gin, and enjoyed the adventure. -Jason Brown | |||
