Other major changes, the game commission li- as explained in circular are Native Indians or Esk of one-half or more Indian or Eskimo blood, will not be required to buy a resident trapping license in order to trap. However, in order to claim exemption under this provision of the law, they must procure a free certificate from representatives of the United States Indian Service or from the Alaska Game Commission This certificate, while allowing them to hunt, trap or deal in furs without a license, does not relieve them of the responsibility of abiding by the general laws and regulations in the same degree required of a White person. no: Bears Game Animals “Black bears, including its brown or blue color variation, have now been classed as game animals rather than fur-beerers, but the skins of these animals may continue to be bought, sold and transported the same as pelts of fur-bearing animals. “Under Regulation 20, beaver skins which have had tags attached by Jead and string seals, may not only be bought and sold within the Ter- ritory for a period of 90 days there- after, but may also be shipped in care of the Alaska Game Commis- sion, 1523 Smith Tower, Seattle Washington, where they will be seal- ed with s lly numbered metal seals and forwarded w the ship- per desires. The purpose of this regulation will have the two-fold effect of helping shippers get their beaver to the market without delay and, at the same time, relieve them of the double postal charges neces- sary when they route tagged skins to the Juneau office of the commi sion for sealing and reforwarding.” Fur Seasons Changes in open seasons are num- erous throughout the Territory but in Fur District 1 (Southeast Alaska) the open season on mink, marten, land otter, weasel, red foxes and lynx will be from December 10 to January 20 and on muskrat from March 1 to April 30.
