Stupid Alaska Laws

Better shoot that bear before taking its picture

It is legal to shoot a bear, but it’s not legal to wake a sleeping bear for the purpose of taking a picture.  I’m glad the legal minds in Alaska has their priorities straight although their common sense might be abit backwords.

Pilots beware: Make sure you close your eyes when you spot a moose on the ground while flying

Apparently it is illegal to view a moose from an airplane…  Not entirely sure why Alaskan legislature feels it necessary to make this law, but it’s there.  Although I find it somewhat hard to enforce considering the size of the state and the sparseness of its population.
