Alaska wildlife agents are authorized to resume aerial bear culling to protect the endangered Mulchatna caribou herd following a Superior Court ruling.Judge Adolf Zeman rejected conservationist challenges, allowing the program to continue after 191 bears were killed to aid calf survival between 2023 and 2024.The caribou population has plummeted from 190,000 to approximately 16,280, necessitating strict subsistence hunting bans.
