New Rules for Mulchatna Caribou Herd Predation Management Take Effect
The Alaska Board of Game has filed new regulations for managing predators that affect the Mulchatna Caribou Herd. The regulations are effective May 3, 2026, and apply statewide.
The new rules are part of Alaska Administrative Code Title 5, section 92.111, and focus on predation management strategies for the caribou herd. The Mulchatna Caribou Herd is one of Alaska's major caribou populations and is important for subsistence hunting and wildlife management.
Citizens can review the full regulation documents, which are available as PDF attachments on the Alaska Online Public Notices website. Two documents are posted: the main regulation file and a revisor memorandum explaining the changes.
The regulation was filed by the Lieutenant Governor's office under Department of Law file number 2025200331. It will be published in the Alaska Administrative Register 258 in July 2026.
For questions about this regulation, contact the Office of the Governor. The public notice will remain available online until July 31, 2026.
