“If the project is allowed to advance, it could potentially pollute our entire river system...it would absolutely change the ways of life of the communities here.”

We're incredibly saddened by the death of this young brown bear on the Chilkoot River due to a lack of park management. We'd like to see Alaska State Parks manage the area for coexistence between people and wildlife and fund the bear monitor program. https://t.co/iURFsuHNEF

Dr. Ian Stirling made invaluable contributions to polar bear science and conservation. We send our deepest condolences to his family and all who are grieving his loss.

Two weeks ago we lost Dr. Ian Stirling OC, FRSC. Photo from the sea ice of the Beaufort Sea, April 2005. Ian kept meticulous field notes that often resulted in such papers. A natural historian at his core.

We don’t want the mine, we don’t need the mine. Extraction economies, they are destructive, it’s not something we should build our hopes on. It doesn’t pay off in the long run. These salmon have supported our people for countless generations.

We are stewards of the land. And it is OK for us to take care of this thing that we love so much. It’s everything, it’s the land, it’s the air, it’s the water. It’s the people. And that’s what we think in the Lingit Ani. -Skeenyaa tlaa Nancy Keen @KHNS_FM
