Alaska shoots wolves to save caribou

The Fairbanks Daily News Miner reports that Alaska wildlife biologists recently undertook an aerial gunning program for wolf control. A total of 28 wolves were killed last month on the calving grounds of the struggling Southern Alaska Peninsula Caribou Herd.

Research on this herd has shown a major population crash from more than 4,000 animals to about 600 in six years, with wolves the major culprit in calf deaths.
