Fish & Game in Fairbanks has documented that at least 30 bison in the Delta herd fell through the ice of a wilderness pond and died. They have found their skeletons. However, there may be more that died.
The Fish & Game counts are coming up between 80 and 100 animals short of their anticipated numbers.
The Delta bison hunt is a prized one. In July, ADF&G said that the last 27 and 29 hunters for two of the hunts wouldn't receive permits this year. Those who do get permits will be limited to one bull.
