I cannot believe the latest Trump administration's new rules to increase hunting and trapping on federal preserves in Alaska. In the pursuit to eliminate any prohibitions of President Barack Obama's administration, President Donald Trump has hit a new low.
How can you call the sport of "hunting," killing baby animals and their mothers in their dens or animals that are in a defenseless position, such as when swimming or driving past them in a motorboat! How barbaric and inhumane. Why not just set them up in corrals and shoot them there to make it even easier? I believe Trump's administration is eliminating Alaska's authority to regulate our own wildlife.
