I'm surprised your machismo ended just with wolves and black bears.  Why not brown bears, too?  If you removed all the predators there would be moose and caribou everywhere.

I have nothing personal against people who trap or hunt predators.  If that's your thing, go for it.  But when somebody who claims in another comment to "care about Alaska" offers up the idea of shooting certain species to total annihilation, it's laughable.
