I certainly won't speak for them, but I'd imagine they will still drop people along the rivers on state land right in front of or within caribou. It would then be up to the hunter if they want to pursue caribou off the river or within the designated state land along the river. That's part of the ridiculousness of all this. The airplanes are likely still going to drop hunters in approximately the same spots. I don't envy the transporters and the phone calls they will have over the next week and months. I guess it comes with the territory of operating up there. Be easy on them fellas, they're as frustrated and as against this as you are.
Does anyone know who has legal authority on this? Troopers? Or would it have to be federal law enforcement?
