Tony Knowles Gets Best Reception but Pressure on Predator Control

Loud applause and whistles for former governor at AFN

Tom Nizzia / Anchorage Daily News / October 28, 2006

Knowles was put on the hot seat when he was pressed on his past positions on predator control. Asked if he had caved in to environmental interests on the issue in the past, he said his main concern was the "first harvest" of subsistence.

He repeated his current position several times: "I will ensure predator control based on good science and local knowledge is pursued to make sure we have that first harvest."
