Brown Bear Density and Estimated Harvest Rates in Northwestern Alaska

2021-02-01

Abstract excerpt

Human‐caused mortality in general, and unregulated hunting in particular, have been implicated in reductions in brown bear (Ursus arctos) populations throughout much of their range. In northwestern Alaska, USA, bear densities have not been assessed in 20 years while harvest regulations have been liberalized, raising concerns that broad undetected population declines might occur. We used a modified mark‐resight app...
