THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 12, 2002 A proposal to increase Alaska Native authority over hunting isn't included in a bill before a House committee. According to The Fairbanks Daily News-Miner, the Bush administration said it was working on a proposal to give tribal management of seal, walrus and whale hunting the force of federal law.

Agreements with Alaska Natives are allowed but tribal leaders want great control. Get the Story:
