朱诺附近山区山羊狩猎季提前关闭
阿拉斯加州渔猎部发布紧急命令，朱诺附近山区的山羊狩猎季提前关闭，命令自10月4日周日晚11点59分起生效。据《朱诺帝国报》10月8日报道，渔猎生物学家在空中调查中发现该区域山羊种群数量低于管理目标，为保护种群延续决定提前结束本季狩猎。山羊是阿拉斯加东南部的标志性高山物种，其狩猎配额实行严格的科学与配额管理。渔猎部表示，提前关闭是常规野生动物管理手段，种群恢复后将重新开放。当地猎人组织对决定表示理解，但希望管理部门提供更详细的种群数据。
Mountain Goat Hunt Near Juneau Closes Early
Alaska's Department of Fish and Game issued an emergency order closing the mountain goat hunting season near Juneau, effective 11:59 p.m. Sunday, October 4. According to the Juneau Empire on October 8, wildlife biologists found the area's goat population below management objectives during aerial surveys and ended the season early to protect the herd's future. Mountain goats are an iconic alpine species of Southeast Alaska managed under strict science-based quotas. The department called the early closure a routine wildlife management tool and said the area will reopen once the population recovers. Local hunter groups said they understand the decision but want more detailed population data.
