What was your reaction to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service’s decision not to list the Pacific walrus under the Endangered Species Act? Tell us October 17th on Exchange.
- Did the FWS decision on the Pacific walrus surprise you? Do you think it will have an impact on subsistence or other lifestyles in Western Alaska?
