The Northwest Territories government wants, for conservation reasons, to ban drones being used in caribou hunting…except for aboriginals {!?!}. We didn’t realize that drones were an aboriginal ‘traditional practice’…
“Tradition and technology are clashing on the tundra where ‘indigenous’ {aboriginal} groups are debating the use of drones to hunt caribou.
The issue arose during public consultations on new wildlife regulations in the Northwest Territories, where {some} ‘First Nations’ {aboriginals} and Métis {partial aboriginals} depend on caribou for food.
“Drones are not widely used to hunt, but the N.W.T. government says they have been utilized to find caribou and sometimes to herd them to a hunter. That’s caused fears of increased pressure on populations that are already struggling.
“The Bathurst herd, nearly half a million strong in the 1980s, has dwindled to 8,500. The Bluenose-East herd has declined almost 50% in the last three years to about 19,000 animals…
“The territory has proposed {discrimination in} banning drones for hunting except for ‘indigenous’ {aboriginal} harvesters.
“Some ‘indigenous’ {aboriginal} groups argue the ban should go further. The board that co-manages wildlife between Great Slave and Great Bear lakes wants a ban on drones to apply universally…
“Others argue that banning drones for ‘indigenous’ {aboriginal} groups would violate ‘treaty rights’. An N.W.T. report into consultations on the proposed ban says both the Inuvialuit Game Council and the Wildlife Management Advisory Council states {Race} ‘rights holders’ should be exempt from the proposed ban,
“because of the potential infringement to Aboriginal harvesters exercising their {Race} rights.”
“The Tlicho government, which has jurisdiction in communities west of Great Slave Lake, also wants ‘indigenous’ {aboriginal} harvesters exempted…”
