This YouTube video demonstrates the garbage thrown by animal rights activists and those who make a quasi-religion out of the environment.
Governor Sarah Palin does indeed, support aerial hunting of wolves. But not for fun (and she has never done it). The point is predator control, as an article in Slate (http://www.slate.com/id/2199140) points out that aerial hunting is against federal law and is only permitted to control predators. Moreover, in Alaska permits are given only “in select areas” where moose and caribou populations are threatened. The article says this leaves more meat for human hunters. I don’t doubt that, and I see nothing wrong with it. Subsistence hunting is a mainstay for some Alaskans’ diets. But it would also seem that the hunts, which have controlled numbers of permitted kills, are also conducted as a matter of proper ecosystem management.
