• W596996898 abstract "This report provides background information on subsistence uses of the Northern Alaska Peninsula Caribou Herd, particularly focusing on communities of Game Management Unit 9E. The herd numbers about 20,000 animals and its population is stable. In recent years, the southward migration of this herd has been delayed. Consequently, communities such as Pilot Point, Ugashik, and Port Heiden in GMU 9E have been unable to hawest caribou in adequate numbers for subsistence use before the March 31 season closure. In April 1992, in response to petitions from Pilot Point and Port Heiden, the Alaska Board of Game authorized a four-day emergency opening for caribou hunting in a portion of the subunit., During that time, 94 caribou were harvested by four communities (Pilot Point, Ugashik, Port Heiden, and Chignik Lake). An emergency opening in April 1988 around Port Heiden had also been authorized by the Board for similar reasons. To address these probfems caused by the late migration of the herd, the Alaska Department of Ash and Game submitted a proposal to the Board for consfderation during its November 1992 meeting to extend the resident caribou hunting season in GMU 9E through April 30. The report summarizes the available data on subsistence harvest levels of the herd, based largely on Division of Subsistence research. The data demonstrate that the communities of the Northern Alaska Peninsula are highly dependent upon subsistence harvests of caribou. These harvests are relatively large compared to most other areas of the state. Estimates of the annual subsistence hatvests of Northern Alaska Peninsula caribou by local communities range from about 900 to about 1,250 animals. At Port Heiden in 1988/87, the caribou harvest of 244.7 pounds of caribou per person (1.63 caribou per person) made up 60.0 percent of the annual take of subsistence foods. Annual per capita harvests of caribou in the other locaf communitfes in the 1960s were 73.9 pounds in King Salmon, 54.6 pounds in Naknek, 147.5 pounds in South Naknek, 232.8 pounds in Egegik, 238.3 pounds in Pilot Point/Ugashik, 15.3 pounds in Chignik, 14.6 pounds.in Chignik Lagoon, 171.2 pounds in Chignik Lake, 107.8 pounds in lvanof Bay, and 28.2 pounds in Perryville. Also, caribou are thoroughly utilized for food and are very widely shared within and between communities. The division conducted interviews with caribou hunters from Pilot Point, Ugashik. and Port Heiden to document caribou harvests during the 1991/92 regulatory year, including the special opening. Data from comprehensive household surveys are also available for Chignik Lake and Chignik. These data suggest that the emergency opening was successful in providing subsistence hunting opportunities to meet the communities’ needs. Pilot Point/Ugashik hunters took 135 caribou in 1991/92, including 24 (17.8 percent) in the April opening. The per capita harvest of caribou for the whole year (260.7 pounds, 1.74 caribou) was very similar to that of 1986/87, the most recent other year for which data are available. At Port Heiden, 174 caribou were harvested in 1991/92. of these, 89 (39.7 percent) were taken in April. With the additional hunting opportunity provided by the emergency opening, Port Heiden hunters were able to achieve a harvest of 227.0 pounds of caribou meat per person (1 Sl caribou per person), very similar to the harvest reported for 1986/87. Without the special opening, the 1991/92 harvest would have been about 44 percent below that of 1988/87. There was unanimous consent among interviewed hunters who participated in the April hunt that it was welcome, necessary, and a success. Enough caribou were harvested to meet harvest goals and share throughout the communities. However, the short fourday duration of the hunt created some problems, according to these hunters. At Pilot Point, caribou were available earlier in April, when travel conditions were good; conditions improved again on the last day of the hunt. At Port Heiden, little hunting occurred for the first two days of the emergency opening due to very poor weather and few caribou in the area. On the last day, the weather improved and caribou were present. Although an adequate harvest was achieved, there were many hunters in the field, creating a crowded, potent&fly dangerous situation. The interviewed hunters from Plot Point, Ugashik, and Port Heiden said that an April hunting season as proposed by the Department would likely solve the probtems created by the changing migration pattern of the Northern Alaska Peninsula Herd. As noted in the postscript, in November 1992 the Board of Game adopted the season change proposed by the department." @default.
