Managing Alaska's Fish and
Game for Abundance

"Following Alaska's constitutional and statutory direction, we will continue to manage wildlife for abundance and provide for multiple use, including the use of wildlife resources by Alaskan families for food."

- Sean Parnel, Governor of Alaska (July, 2009)

"... a healthier Alaska via personal responsibility, and subsisting more on our pure and plentiful Alaskan food sources! It’s why we protect our waters and soils from pollutants, and it’s a reason we manage our wildlife for abundance."
