Animal rights’ group urges Alaska tourism boycott

JUNEAU, Alaska – An animal rights’ group is calling for a tourism boycott of Alaska over a recent decision to remove buffer zones for wolf trapping near Denali National Park.

Friends of Animals’ President Priscilla Feral states last week’s decision by a divided Alaska Board of Game lacked any sense of decency.

She states treating wolves as vermin is an extreme attitude and that her group is taking a drastic step in response. She states Gov. Sean Parnell needs to intervene.

A Parnell spokeswoman did not immediately return a message seeking comment.

Feral states Friends of Animals last used a tourism boycott to protest Alaska’s wolf program in the early 1990s.
