At least Alaska is still allowing subsistence bear hunting for residents who depend upon their harvest.

Its a bummer to lose one of the few things you look forward to every year. Just stay healthy and make bigger plans for the next year.
But soooo much time on my hands. Mental gymnastics is the only kind I can do in my living room.Please folks, stop doing mental gymnastics about how you can still make trips.
I support the Alaska Governor making that call. I look at rural Montana counties where we are having 1 death in 6 cases, 2 deaths in 6 cases, 1 death in 5 cases, it shows how under-equiped rural areas are to handle this and how it impacts elderly populations. The last thing Alaska needs is a bunch of non-residents heading north, bringing the pox to an elderly population with lower medical infrastructure, and higher percentages of native populations that have shown lower immunities to some diseases.
Please folks, stop doing mental gymnastics about how you can still make trips.
Drawing occurs 18 months ahead of the season. The tags for April-June 2021 hunts have already been drawn.Hopefully your tags will be valid next year.
Agreed. We have the strawman argument "I am safer going out in the woods than into the grocery store". Yes, you are. But you are still going into the grocery store regardless, which renders the argument moot. And, if you are going out into the woods, you are increasing your number of trips to the gas station, grocery store, etc. It's a probability game here.
Any travel between communities increases the risk of spread. My hunting buddy was exposed this last week because a coworker of his did not heed the stay at home order and traveled to an area with a higher prevalence of CV. His company now had to bring in their quarantine shift because of two dipshits.
Who said anything about 9 months? I see you haven't run out of hyperbole.You pretty well have a 100% chance of getting it baring a vaccine. Even then im sure we will have the anti vax community.
A vaccine is st best January.
I highly doubt. In fact I guarantee you WILL NOT stay locked in your house for 9 months. You won't go that long without gas, groceries, drugs. .
The mental gymnastics is how long can I force the general population to swirl down the drain with the blind faith that you can hide 9 months to a year.
With the 30% unemployment rate we are blindly running to, you will long outrun your money before you run put of health.
The state's can stand on their heads and scream bloody murder. Deer, elk, moose, sheep, antelope, bears, turkeys WILL be getting tipped over this year. The ONLY choice the state will have is to allow it, or lock guys up.
I was a kid in the Carter Malayse. I've eaten poached deer and pheasants. I hope to never be forced to again, but let's not pretend it won't happen.
Desperate times = desperate men

The figures I've seen put this at 50-70 % exposure for the populace.I keep seeing this being posted and repeated, and it just doesn't pass the smell test to me.
We lets H1N1 run it's course in 2009/2010, and best guesses are ~20% of the population got it.

That doesn’t mean their tags can’t be valid next year. Their would be no more pressure on the bears because no one is hunting them this year.Drawing occurs 18 months ahead of the season. The tags for April-June 2021 hunts have already been drawn.
