“Spraker also believes the state must kill a lot more bears to increase moose and caribou populations for hunters" which explains why Spraker told a reporter two weeks earlier (http://www.adn.com/alaska-news/wildlife/2016/06/15/could-brainy-bears-raid-denali-park-campsites-after-feasting-at-bait-stations/) that "food-conditioning" is a "longtime myth" which explains why I included his unstated objective of killing a lot more bears. The fact that bears are attracted to bait stations (including garbage cans and bird feeders) is not a longtime myth and Spraker knows better. Spreading such baloney around is tantamount to the tobacco companies claiming that cigarettes don't cause cancer and it's intended to confuse people. For a former wildlife biologist to do such a thing is unethical. That's why I included Spraker's unstated objective to kill more bears. Consider the source.
