We the undersigned urge the Alaska Board of Game to prohibit the killing of wolves on state lands at the northeast boundary of Denali National Park. This action would provide needed protection for the wolves who den in the park, when they move into this historically important part of their habitat.
The focus on protecting these predators remains central to my efforts as I monitor the current policies regarding Denali National Park. I have begun drafting formal correspondence to the Alaska Board of Game to emphasize the importance of this habitat for local wildlife. Updates will be provided as soon as there is a meaningful development to report.

Wolf ovulation in Denali National Park has plummeted since protective areas especially in NE corridor were removed. Wolves follow the prey migration in winter. The present boundaries of the park do not take in the whole functioning ecosystem.

We cannot claim to help the return of wolves, which need, like all creatures, habitat to breed and raise their young, if we place the families and pups into habitat that is also a killing ground. Please provide the protection to allow the wolves to den in the park.

My husband and I are traveling a lot....just got back from Africa, where we were able to see rare white rhinos. Currently Idaho is on my no-go list because of the killing of wolves. Is tourism important to Alaska? Lots of people ask my advice. Just sayin.....

Natural ranges for wild wolves should be preserved and protected. As social animals, they learn from their family, and hunting traditions can be extinguished entirely when wolves are killed by hunters and trappers, leading to far more than just one or two dead wolves.

this has been a long standing battle to get the BOG to understand that these wolves provide more revenue and value to the state alive than trapped , skinned and hanging on some guys cabin wall. As a tour driver in Denali for a decade I can attest to this. Protect them!

The State needs to start working with the National Park Service to protect these special wolves. The research that has been done is valuable to all game management agencies. Working together is also good for the state's economy since seeing wolves in Denali NP is a big draw.

Stop killing wolves, they are necessary to the balance of nature, but they are so few nowadays, let them alone. I stand for wolves!
